Almost Ready

It has been a whirlwind week of packing and making the final preparations for our trip. George and I have been on an emotional roller coaster. At times we felt panicked, hopeless and exhausted. Then we would feel optimistic and hopeful that everything would fit and we would be ready on time. The amount of work involved in getting everything on the boat in an organized way was astounding. George did the packing while I recorded the items on our inventory. We are hoping that the inventory will reduce the amount of time spent looking for things.

We have decided to postpone our departure for a day. We had originally planned to leave tomorrow morning but there are thunderstorms predicted for tomorrow night. We don't sleep well during thunderstorms while we are at anchor. We are already sleep deprived from lying awake at night with hundreds of thoughts going through our heads. We didn't want to start the trip with the guarantee of a poor night's sleep on our first night at anchor.

This is what the salon looked like a few days ago.
