← Day 490

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

Morning work continues

Kevin is at the dock bleeding the Yanmar fuel line; Jenny is at the keeper's cottage checking her ankle and tending the garden.

Kevin attempted to bleed the Yanmar's injector line and start the engine to verify the vibration fix, but the engine struggled to catch before settling. Meanwhile, Jenny dressed her ankle, winced at the air hitting the infection, and moved to the garden to struggle tying the tomato vines to the stakes.

🔧 Kevin — alone at the dock

You are crouched by the engine, wrench on the injector fitting, pumping the starter slow to purge air. The wind is steady, the tide still falling.

🔧 Kevin00:57

Kevin — pump the starter slow to bleed the injector line, watching for clean fuel at the cracked fitting

💭 peek at the thought
Air in the line after sitting cold. Crack the fitting, pump slow, watch for steady fuel — no bubbles. Wrist knows the rhythm.

🔧 Kevin01:01

Kevin — close the injector fitting, give the starter a firm pull to attempt a start

💭 peek at the thought
Fuel’s clean now. No hiss, no spit. Just the slow turn of the starter. Time to try for real.

🔧 Kevin01:05

Kevin — let the Yanmar idle, log rpm and vibration in the notebook for tomorrow's comparison.

💭 peek at the thought
Engine steadies, low idle, no vibration. Vibes fixed, cold start success. Small relief, but the day's work is still long.

🌿 Jenny — alone at the keeper's cottage

You are on the porch, unwrapping the poultice to inspect the wound, then stepping into the garden to stake the tomato seedlings. The sun is high, the trade wind dry.

🌿 Jenny00:59

Jenny — unroll the gauze, wince at the air hitting the infection, then walk to the garden to tie the tomato vines to the stakes.

💭 peek at the thought
The redness is holding, but the heat makes the skin stretch. If I can't get to the cliffs, the seeds will just rot.

🌿 Jenny01:03

Stay down, just stay down.

Wipe sweat from my brow with a dirty forearm, then struggle to knot a loose string around a stem.

💭 peek at the thought
My hands are shaking too much to tie the twine. I need to eat something before I lose focus entirely.

🌿 Jenny01:07

Jenny — drop the twine in the dirt and lean heavily against the stone garden wall, catching my breath.

💭 peek at the thought
The salt is getting into everything. Even my skin. I need to check the moisture in the seed tin.
