Did you have the Flag at half mast for the two dead soldiers

So are those your two feet post-two beer consumption? Looks like a wonderful day being completely non-productive. How fun.

Those are, indeed, my two feet (and stunning legs) standing on the cabin top as we sailed in some light air. These are my latest pair of Sperrys and worn only on deck, since they're too pristine to wear in public

Hey, John - sailors choose light beers so the stuff's not so heavy to carry all the way down the dock.
