Whether Lesson: Tropical Depressions

It is no longer a question of "whether" I am going to sea with Steve or not. I told him today that I would not go with him, though he still seems to think that he can get that year off from work.

I have passed through the denial and anger phases and am now being kicked around by a tropical depression. Tropical depressions are precursors of hurricanes or cyclones (depending on your position north or south of the equator).

So, today's whether or not lesson is this: If you find yourself in a depression (tropical or otherwise) go to sea where it's safe (i.e. no land or reefs to run into) .
