                                               SUNSET OVER PHIPPSBURG TUESDAY

Mary and I are really starting to think of Seguin as home.  Yesterday after running errands in Bath (and our permanent home in Arrowsic), neither of us wanted to stay on land even with rough seas for the ride back.
     Captain Ethan Deberry thought seas would be marginal for the transport but agreed to do it. Our dog Mitch was not impressed but suffered the trip okay.
     We've had our second group of visitors. Chandlers from Small Point in Phippsburg motored over Tuesday on a sunny calm day.  They are members of FOSIL and relatives of founder Nat Chandler.
     Mary has been setting up the gift shop and guest quarters for visitors.  I've been doing small repairs and weedwacking trails.  We have adjusted our behaviors to the limited water and sewer conditions here including Mary washing her hair with rainwater.
     Mary is going off Island for the weekend to attend a funeral of a relative in Washington, D.C.  Our first non-FOSIL overnight guests will be my brother and sister who agreed to come out to help and keep me company for the weekend.
