The past week has been a whirlwind of activity. Captain Tom, Tracey and I have been busy preparing the boat, and it appears to be quite ready to make way.
Captain Tom has installed a fish finder on The Poinsettia. I’ll admit, I was skeptical that the technology would work since dolphins are technically not fish, but Captain Tom assured me that it wouldn’t be a problem. “They swim, don’t they?” he said. “This here machine is the best me money can buy, Chief. No need to worry.” I believe him.
Tracey decided that she wants to come with us. I was hesitant, fearing that there would be some danger out there, and I certainly don’t want her to run the risk of being injured or caught by the Coast Guard. But she insisted, and Captain Tom is all right with it, so I guess that’s that.
Something seems to be happening between Tracey and I. She is behaving much differently toward me than when I first called her weeks ago. I think she shares my enthusiasm for dolphins.
