By travel standards an exceptional day on the high seas. No muss, no fuss steady progress was made toward our
simultaneous goals of preparing equipment and reducing the distance between us and our primary destination. By far
superb weather, perfect traveling conditions remain the highlight. It makes everything, every moment so comfortable
and easy. All the references I have made to her charm in this state remain true; it's an attraction one can not
repel; intoxicating in it's allure.

And recognizing the value of such moods we do nothing to upset the equilibrium. Go with it: that's a philosophy out
here to carry one far, not that there is a choice. But sometimes simple recognition of the obvious is too obvious.
Time has a way of revealing this in broad contrast. The earned trait of wisdom is not necessarily attached.
