October and headed south again!


Michael & Finn arrived Tuesday night and are getting a little look at San Francisco. Yesterday Patty took them to walk across the Golden Gate bridge. I guess they had time to wander around Golden Gate Park as well. Chris & I did some last minute things to get the boat ready to go, spent the afternoon just laying about and reading and then walked over to Chevy's for dinner. It was a great day...until we got back from dinner. There seems to be some sort of problem with the AC power coming into the boat vs the inverter using battery power. Chris has been trying to figure it out since last night. No luck so far.
We had originally planned to take off very early this morning but since it will take 24-25 hrs to get to Monterey Bay we have amended that plan. That way we'll be able to go into the harbor during the daylight - always preferable as far as I am concerned!
Not much else happening right now. Just getting breakfast & showers taken care of and stuff stowed before we leave.
I would, however, like to encourage those of you who are following the blog (or any blogs for that matter) to leave the occasional comment! We really enjoy hearing from you and knowing that someone is "out there"! If you have had trouble leaving comments in the past, it is really quite easy but you DO need to be sure to enter that funny "word" at the bottom into the box provided. It apparently has something to do with eliminating spam.

Yes, there are people reading all of the Faith blogs, faithfully.
Say hello to Chris and Patty and tell Chris that I am certain that the AC vs DC power problem involves a thing-a-ma-jig. Every time I have experienced electrical problems it has been due to the do-hickey being improperly communicating with the thing-a-ma-jig that is critical to flux alignment in this dimension. If you adjust the dimensional flow to the correct direction, everything will be fine, unless of course you jup dimensions again.

Just trying to be helpful.

yes, yes, yes, I am reading your blog. I am checking in every 3 days to catch up on your adventures.
I had electrical ghosts on Bailiwick. We finally figured out that the electricity coming in from the box on the dock was not clean. Once that got straightened out, no problemos.. You gotta figure that if it wasn't an issue for the past year, then it might be the local juice.....
