still thinking about the wind


Thinking today more about the wind and the time of year I remembered it was early June of last year when we rode the Picton Castle from Cape Cod to Norfolk, much of that journey with a stiff north wind that carried us along the coast at 8 knots.


In April, May and early June the warm moist air from the south seems to battle the dry cool air from the north, the winds shift back and forth depending on who is winning the battle on that day.  So we'll hope for the best - a nice day or two with north wind - to start the trip.  Things always seem to work out.
