Log of s/v Bellerophon

Carol and Jim came down from Cranston yesterday to join us for dinner and desert, and to celebrate Scott's birthday. How they managed to get that strawberry shortcake on board without smushing I dont know. We motored from Jamestown to Newport this morning and then cleaned the deck in time for our afternoon visitors, who should be here shortly. A brief shopping trip ashore replentished our supply of coffee and cigars, two staples we cannot be without.
