Apart — Kevin at the dock, Jenny at the keeper's cottage

Afternoon work and rest

Kevin is at the dock cleaning tools; Jenny is at the cottage drying seed packets and checking stores.

Kevin cleaned his tools and started coffee and corned beef, while Jenny checked the water tank and began sketching sea beet morphology. Both were hungry and tired after a morning of stalled projects.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the dock

You scrub acetone into the roller and brush on the dock planking, the tub half-empty beside you. The centreboard case sits bare, masked off, waiting for a day the epoxy will cure.

🔧 Kevin03:29

Kevin — clean tools with acetone, cap the epoxy tub, coil the brush and roller, walk up to the cottage

💭 peek at the thought

Humidity's still too high for epoxy. Wasted a batch and two pieces of mat. Should've waited for the northerly. Boat's two days out — if it comes. Could try the mechanical fastening route like the notebook says: bolts first, glass over later when weather breaks.

🔧 Kevin03:34

Kevin — walk into the kitchen, open the cupboard, take out a tin of corned beef, set water to boil for coffee

💭 peek at the thought

Kitchen's quiet. Jenny's probably still at the table with her sketches or out at the spring. Need to eat something — hollow feeling in the gut. Tinned mackerel's gone, flour's chewed through. Corned beef and limpets left, maybe coffee.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the keeper's cottage

You lift each packet, feeling for dampness, restacking them on fresh newspaper near the stove's warmth. The water tank gauge reads 367 litres; the barometer climbs steady.

🌿 Jenny03:34

Jenny — stack seed packets on fresh newspaper near stove, check water tank gauge reads 367 litres, move toward kitchen to begin sketching water beet morphology for notes on salt adaptation patterns.

💭 peek at the thought

The seeds are still vulnerable despite the surface drying. I need to monitor them constantly, maybe rig a simple desiccant system with the spare silica gel packets from the medical supplies.

🌿 Jenny03:37

Jenny — put the pencil down, walk to the kitchen, check the pantry for the remaining corned beef or the flour.

💭 peek at the thought

My stomach is growling again. Those limpets didn't cut it, and I need something substantial before the boat comes in two days.
