Shade Sail Trials

12 Aug 23:

Shade Sail Trials are complete. We have used it several times and found it essential if we want to sit on the deck in the late afternoon and heat index in the sun is over 100F. There is a tradeoff if the wind is coming from one direction when the sail cuts down on the breeze. Also, the sail blocks our view of the arched bridge, where squirrels show up to ask for peanuts to be thrown at them.  

Here is the shade at 20:30:22 GMT (DST). If I posted a picture at noon, Webb could do the math based on the shadow and spars angles with relation to the sun and give you the Lat Long of our deck :) 

Skipper promises shadow puppets for our evening Theater In The Woods. She also mentioned something about the sun being over the yardarm...
