                     93     I had a dream last night (or was it in the afternoon? or the morning?
                        or the day before?) about being adrift in the ocean with no food, and

                        we were all languishing on deck with no energy to do anything, and
                        the boat was tossing and heaving around, and then a seagull flew
                        overhead and landed on the boom and Brian said, “Kill it! Kill it!”


                     94     It’s now about two in the afternoon, and the sun has broken through
                        the clouds, and we’re about thirty-six miles from Grand Manan. We’re
                        hoping to get there before dark. It’s my watch now, so I’d better get busy.

                     95       ot yelled at for not understanding all the navigation
                        Ggobbledygook. Got yelled at for joking around too much. Got
                        yelled at for breathing. Well, almost.

                     96     Sophie told her first Bompie story today. It went something like this:


                     97     When Bompie was a young man, he lived on a farm, and his family
                        was very poor. They didn’t even have a car or a truck. But one day they
                        traded two mules for a car. The only thing was, no one knew how to
                        drive it. Bompie had ridden in cars, though, and he didn’t think it could
                        be all that hard to drive one. So Bompie volunteered to go to town to
                        pick up the car and drive it home.
