← Day 35

Apart — Kevin at the dock, Jenny at the garden

Midday work at dock and garden

Kevin is at the dock finishing the fourth epoxy coat on the glass mast step while the generator dehumidifier runs; Jenny is in the garden planting heirloom seeds in prepared rows under shade cloth.

No narrator was available, so nothing about this stretch was recorded.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the dock

You set the brush down and peel back the tent flap to check the cure. The epoxy surface tacks clean under your fingertip — no fingerprint left. The generator's exhaust drifts across the dock, warm and steady. You check your watch: near noon. Time to secure the tent and head up for the radio schedule.

🔧 Kevin07:19

Kevin — secure the tent flaps over the mast step, check generator oil and dehumidifier duty cycle, walk up to the cottage with sextant case for noon sight

💭 peek at the thought
Fourth coat's holding. Tent can stay buttoned up while the generator runs the dehumidifier. Noon sight first, then Tom's frequency. If the static breaks today, I'll need words I haven't found in eighteen months.

🔧 Kevin07:23

Kevin — set up the shortwave at the cottage table, extend the aerial, tune to Tom's frequency — 7.085 MHz USB — and key the mic

💭 peek at the thought
Noon sight done. Latitude 51°23'N, longitude 9°47'W — close enough to the chart. Barometer's at 1018 and still falling slow. The low's dragging its feet. Radio's charged to 85%. Time to call.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the garden

You firm the soil over the last row and wipe dirt from your forearms. The shade cloth casts a lattice of light across the beds. You glance at the hilltop — the sextant case waits on the kitchen table. The tide is still low out at the pools; succulents wait for sketching. Your stomach reminds you breakfast was hours ago.

🌿 Jenny07:22

Come on, you just grow.

stand up slowly, rubbing my major knees, and walk toward the way to get my notebook and a water.

💭 peek at the thought
If these don't take, I'm just burying more ghosts. I'm so tired of the rot.

🌿 Jenny07:25

Jenny — walk back to the cottage to pick up the notebook and the pencil, then head toward the shore.

💭 peek at the thought
The light is too sharp now. I need to see those tide pools before the water turns.
