Caulking

     In the morning we went to the post office to get a po box but they closed before we got to the window. We'll try again tomorrow. This is becoming painful and a bureaucratic mess. Then in the afternoon I worked on re-caulking the decks. Some of the areas had dried enough, some had not. We are expecting rain tomorrow so I wanted to get do as much as possible. Then in the evening we found that the small repair to a leak in the aft head was dripping slightly again. So I modified one of the fittings to fit the old thin pex A blue 1/2 inch lines i have. Now I can fit that old blue pex to the new 1/2 inch white stuff if necessary. Then we found that the port wall forward by the head and on to the hanging locker port are damp. I'm sure something is leaking but now finding it will be a chore. So everything is open and airing out now. Hannah is doing wash and there are lintels on the stove for when she comes back.
