Position Report: 00:00; 09/08 (midnight)
Wind filled in last night at about 15 - 20 kts, but we have missed the window of opportunity to slide northeast at 30 deg as I suspected. Trades have, and are, continuing to fill in, and the best we can do is continue heading north to about 36 deg. According to the latest grib files they should get lighter as we head N. The weather fax doesn't look all that good right now, particularly for Ada Helen, but the Hi should move south and west and that will benefit us in a few days if it does.
This will get posted sometime in the middle of the night when transmission is the best so my position reports will be slightly different than the body of text.
Love,
Me

Hello Uncle John,
Praise the Lord that you and the crew have set sail for home. I look forward to checking your progess each day. We will continue to pray that all goes well. Enjoy the beautiful skies as you make your way home.
Just as Mom said it has been cold here, as well as wet. We have had a lot of rain over the last week.
Love to all,
Tina in Wyoming
