A rainy day on the mooring


I decided that I'd spend the day onboard, "working" on the boat (i.e. puttering around, reading, napping, etc). Rain was predicted and the temperature was on the cool side so the idea was that the dog and myself would be comfortably ensconced in the cabin, with tea on the stove and some snacks.

Shortly after I took the picture in this post the wind started to gust over 25 kts, the temperature dropped 15 degrees in an hour and monsoon-like rain started to fall. During a lull in the rain I put the dog in the dinghy and we started for shore...and then the rain *un-lulled* and we wound up looking like drowned rats. 

I never DID get my tea and snacks.
