R&R

Day #44: We met Al and Sue today who are off Wind Dancer, a 1986, 35' Lord Nelson sailboat. It was fun comparing notes as Nellie was built in the same yard and by the same people, but one year later. They too had just returned from the Exumas.

Sue is an expert on how chemicals affect health (see suemcdonald.net). She said an easy way to reduce exposure is by avoiding products containing the term 'fragrance' in their ingredients--it seems some particularly nasty chemicals fall into this category. So how prolific is 'fragrance'? To see I randomly grabbed our dish soap and suntan lotion. Sure enough, both contained 'fragrance'. Hey you never know what you're going to learn by just hanging out in an anchorage.
