by morning. The fog lingered most of the day. It started burning off
above us, but a low fog clung to the ocean. It was weird. When you
looked up there was sun and blue sky, but when you looked out, there was
nothing but a gray mist. The air temperature in these Canadian waters has
been rather cool, 65 -70°, a refreshing change from the hot Mediterranean.
The ocean is fairly calm as we start to enter back into American waters
off the coast of Maine. We're doing about 10 knots so we will get to NY
in time. We'll be tracking by Cape Cod sometime later this week.
Today is the last day the library is open. I have to pack materials and
supplies that are returning to shore and that is quite a bit. Even though
most items remain on the ship, I still had over 40 boxes of stuff to go
back last year. This year should be the same. I also have to track down
the scofflaws that haven't returned their books and DVDs. There are over
25 cadets and a few officers who still have materials out, even though it
was publicized over a week ago that everything had to be back by August
3rd. I have the help of the Regiment officers to track down the
miscreants. I will turn the names of anyone who doesn't return their
items by Friday over to the shore library for impoundment. Such is the
job of a librarian.
