The Young Canadian Sailor

Hi all, Ellen the wife here,

I told Jake I'd post to his blog occasionally to let his audience know how his training is going.

I've gotten to talk to our favourite sailor a few times this week, and generally everything seems to be going well. The only blemish so far has been that Jake was really sick for two days with some intestinal bug going around the building, but he's feeling much better now. He's decided to go back to eating meat since there aren't that many other ways for him to get enough protein to start building some more muscle mass, and he enjoyed a steak for the first time in two years. He's having a great time, despite how much grunt work they're making him do.

He'll be incommunicado over the next couple weeks, though, but I'll try to post again later.

Ellen
