RE: Deck Finally Finished - plus birthday blueberry wine...

One of my boasts has long been of a record made by me which put into disrepute medical science and their limitations of one staying awake. It was in the snowy 80s of the last century when my record of staying awake for 8 days straight was made. Due to the physiology of snow one's short term memory gets overloaded. On the eighth day my short term memory stretched at best back to a couple of minutes previously. One arrived at an incredible point of the Oneness that some spiritualism speaks. The wild thing was that after finally crashing and sleeping for virtually 48 hours straight; upon awakening the whole 8 days could be remembered in chronological order.

But that is me digressing...

My point was meant to be that after these 30+ hour passages with Makina, once making port its been straight to the bunk for a good 12 hours. My guess is that youth played a factor back in my record breaking 80s, although the snowy weather probably factored as well. 🤔
