Flatfish progress

and a return to regular Sjogin visits, complete with sizzling Joe Leone sausage bread.

Serena is just about done. Spar work and hardware fitting are all that’s left absent a pre-launch varnish coat. A June 9th launching is anticipated. Perhaps Charlotte will join her on Launching Day. Imagine the two of them sailing along side by side, the crew in each transfixed by the mirror image of a perfect boat, brought to life by the Master Boatbuilders of David Beaton and Son’s (and grandson’s and nieces and nephew’s).

Started on Spring garden chores; mostly bed clean-up and planning for dividing and transplanting. Will try to work on making the lawn edging more permanent, maybe more slate or stone of some kind.
