Laundry day…

We woke up to a windy day on Iron and decided to sit still and get some housekeeping done. I decided that it was a perfect day to do laundry. Mark set up shop in the tent to mend some of our clothes. I thought I had escaped that chore up here. Oh well! The wind would help dry the clothes quickly and we were starting to smell a little funky. The morning started off with clouds, then it cleared off to blue skies, and then back to cloudy with a south wind. At least it is a warm wind and we now we had enough clean clothes to last for the rest of the trip. Our bodies needed the rest. Zero fishing today.
