pocket dreaming

steen gave me the pocket version of sailing alone around the world, (i particularly like ransome's recommendation that "boys who do not like this book ought to be drowned at once"). it makes for excellent reading immediately before retiring, a favorite embarkation point for the land of nod. i had it in my pocket when i solo captained this week as well. it appears i will be doing more solo journeys, as captain steen has announced his retirement from sailing. something of a pity, methinks. perhaps a new co-captain will hear the call of the wind and the sea.

It travels well and I intend on taking it to some remote places sometime soon.
Remember to use carpet tacks on the deck!!
