day four - heavy rain

Rains begin early morning.  Strong wind at times,  I think about Angel, the canvas woman who made my boom tent, and in my mind I thank her.

Hot chocolate with breakfast, hot tea mid morning.  Thunder comes and goes.

I read, relax, stay warm and dry in my drysuit.  I wear the drysuit not because the tent is leaking, but because with the wind and heavy rains moisture is everywhere.

I catch up on the logbook.  A little before noon the heavy rains stop.  A few straggling thunderstorms pass nearby.

Sunny mid-afternoon, open up the boom tent.

Evening.  Boom tent back in place.  Dinner.  Climb into the sleeping bag with flashes of lightning all around.
