A letter to grandma J. from Tamsyn

Dear Grandma Jean,

I have been making cat and wolf people. My dad taught me and Griffyn a game about two armies. They both live on a cliff. A cat scientist had an idea he had never had before. He figured out how to make helicopters. They look like this (non-sailmail compatible diagram). Well, there was a big rock like a bridge. It looked like this (another diagram of an arched bridge). Soon the wolf people found out how to make helicopters too.

Then a wolf scientist found out how to make planes! They looked like this (diagram of paper airplane shaped like dart). But I am still making them so I don't know how it ends, but I will write to you when it does end! Please respond. Thank you.

Love Tamsyn!

Honey... Have you seen the wind?

Just a quick update.

Our nice start to the passage slowed with two days of 4-5 knot winds. We're plugging away and the winds have risen to 8-10 knots, with a forecast of better winds for th next week - starting tomorrow. Otherwise this has been a delightful passage so far.

Our position is S 12 38.77, W 144 03.73

Owen
