It is a mechanical switch problem ... it needs to be repaired. So we are stopped until it is fixed.

Tracking failed again.

I am so tired. I may have slept for 45 minutes.

The train is stopped. There were some trains ahead of us but now there is some problem with a track switch.

I just realized the battery cradle for my Milwalkie heated jacket has a USB charge port. I gave Terry and Mark my two USB chargepack heaters ...

Docked. Stressful day in this wind. Having two engines is hugely helpful.

Getting fuel here has proven challenging. The diesel pump kept resetting itself each time we stopped pumping. At first it went ridiculously slowly. Dana asked if I thought he should fill the emergency bladder ... if you have to ask ...

With the wind as strong as it is, as narrow a passage, and the shifters sticking this was quite challenging to dock here at
the gas dock. Cold today.

There is antracking bug.

We had dinner ashore. The wind really picked up. When we got back to the boat it was too close to another boat. So we raised anchor in quite a breeze. Trying not to run into the other boat in this wind was quite a challenge but we managed it.

Dana has been changing the oil. The weather is nice today but it's supposed to get proper cold tomorrow so he figured better to do it today. He's almost finished at which point we'll get under way.

Milner stopped by for a visit. I showed him AraVilla. We then walked a bit through by the battlefield.
