Chores are minimal, no errands, no internet, life takes on a new routine. I haven’t made any bread in at least a week. We enjoyed restaurants on our mountain vacation, and then at the boat it was so hot we could barely get the energy to eat. With no wind, this passage is starting out as a drippy hot motor boat ride. I made bread, little sausages rolled in bread, and tortillas. That should provide snacks for the crew for a few days. We met some really experienced sailors recently and they all do longer watches. We normally only do two hours at a time, but last night I finished my book and watched a few movies to keep awake and six hours flew by. Genny, Marie and I enjoyed chick flix when we were visiting Buffalo in their first snow storm of the season, so I decided on 27 Dresses, about a perpetual bridesmaid and after that I watched Proof of Life about a kidnapping and ransom in Colombia, very exciting. There were quite a few fishing boats out to avoid, but the seas were flat and not a breath of wind, the moon was bright and stars filled the sky. This morning everyone did a little math homework, I wrangled Topaz onto the back deck for a hair cut, Roy put out a line. Not sure what he’ll catch since I’ve heard that there are only bill fish here. When ZIGGGGGgggggg, off goes the line. In a split second a HUGE Marlin was leaping into the air and taking all the line at a record speed. Roy was screaming for someone to bring scissors to cut the line, when at the last minute, with no line left on the pole, the line broke. Their principle objective is to apply the scientific values of learning and behavior cheapest levitra twomeyautoworks.com to improve school-related difficulties and to facilitate the learning and development of children.

One can simply buy online tadalafil tablets 20mg in tablet form, viagra is sildenafil citrate medicine, introduced in 1998. The prostate cheapest cialis is a male sexual gland. Wowsie wowsie. This all happened so fast. The poor fish still had the lure and was out there jumping long after the line broke. Afterwards Eric and Roy took the reel apart and found several broken pieces and this is on his heavy reel too. I guess we better not fish if we’re not prepared for a sea monster. Today we are surrounded by sport fisher boats, so maybe someone will catch this guy and relieve him of Roy’s lure. Whew, it’s still hot. Eric has the water maker going, so we turned off the engines, clipped Topaz to her swim line and jumped in for a swim and then a shower. The top two inches of the water is like bath water and below that it’s only slightly refreshing but clean, clear and blue. Our next way point is set for an anchorage inside the Gulf of Papagayo. Right on the edge of where the strong winds shoot across the peninsula. The seem to decrease during the day and blast through at night. If our timing is right we can keep going tomorrow, otherwise we’ll be able to pause at the anchorage and wait for the wind and seas to settle a bit.

Over the last 10 years I've decided the best way to know what God expects is to attend Bible Study. I have two favorites: http://www.communitybiblestudy.org/ has great programs especially for women and children together and lately I've been attending http://www.precept.org/ for a very in-depth study of the bible. Try a bible study to learn all about what's in God's book.Check this out
