Halifax Departure

As is the case wherever Mo touches, here we have been the recipients of much kindness. Tony and Connie, Wayne, Rob, Sebastiaan and Rhiannon, Ben, Rich, John, Sandy and Hagen are just a few of those who have helped to ready us for the next leg.
In fact, Mo was ready yesterday, but her skipper was not. He chose to dally, futzing with this and that bit of stowage, and in the evening and after the rain ended, taking one last, long stroll to see the town and her fireworks.
The dingy will come aboard after this note. And then we will be on our way to St John’s, on our way to the rest of the story…
Fair Winds, warm air and little ice! (except when you feel like anchoring behind a growler)
Continued safe travels! Love your story!
We all will be right there along with you and MO and Monte!!! Safe passages homeward bound!!
Enjoy the fireworks, let’s hope you have no need for any more pyrotechnics 😉
Fair winds and following seas on the next leg from Milwaukee, WI USA.
Fair winds Randall! I am happy to see you and Mo back underway.
Safe travels! Know that there are people praying for you!

LOL, Paul. Best comments ever.
Safe travels from Utqiaġvik AK – An invitation to join us for good food & mediocre company awaits you at Point Barrow!
