We were enjoying the peaceful setting so decided to stay a couple more days. While I prepared for my Monday Live, Bryan rowed to shore and videotaped a mink amongst the rocks, to appear in a future episode if AcousticSailing I’m sure. Today Bryan cooked up some mussels that he had gathered and had been hanging off the boat to spit sand and cleanse for a few days. We found some small pearls in them. The mussel pearls are softer than oyster pearls, so I don’t think they would work for a bracelet.
