At anchor one afternoon in Noumea I heard tiny knuckles rap Eurydice's waterline. I popped out the companion and looked overside. There swam a naked girl. They're French, down there, in New Caledonia; so they swim naked.
"May I come aboard?"
"There's a ladder made of cleats fastened to the rudder." I replied. Thinking quickly, I added: "I'm doing dishes. I'll be below."
It seemed good policy, if you are going to have naked women board your schooner, to maneuver them below. Sure enough, a bit later, feeling neglected on deck, she popped below.
I have thought hard on the subject, but I cannot remember her name. Other things about her which I cannot name I can remember; but not her name. I can tell you this about her: first gal I ever met with a piercing where it ought not be, this gal taught me the value of garnish.
How? A pair of sweats later we paused for dinner. I rowed her to a fine restaurant. Half a bottle of Pouilly-Fuiss

Very cool gift Walt - definitely unique, and some nice cigars in there too.

As for the the little rug... doilies... it's a coaster. Borderland style. ;-)
Enjoy, my friend, and live in the wind when you can.
