End of the Season

Mast off. Or unstepped, as it goes in nautical parlance.
As for the shot, a bit biblical, I hope. And luckily no great flood; the boat was nicely afloat. It is rather small of course, so the pairs of animals that I can accommodate will be limited. But then, starting out in a new world, I'd happily leave behind the larger carnivores. Sharks, we will have to put up with, I guess. What's the smallest mammal we milk, though?
So, home to pack. South tomorrow on the early flight. And thanks to Jimmie, Rob, Steve, Sean and Denis for the help. I owe you all a pint. Maybe even each.
