Successful Adventure, 21Mar13

An adventure is when you don't know what will happen or how it will end. A successful adventure is when nobody gets hurt. This has been a successful adventure.
The only thing to do this morning was to get from Carolina Beach up to Wrightsville Beach; an uneventful three hours, except that it was the coldest day of the entire trip: temperature in the 30's with strong north-west wind. The first full day of spring.
This trip was about three things: currents, cold, and the transmission fluid leak. I learned how to handle currents, I never got cold, and the transmission held together. That made the adventure a good experience.
