Does it shock anyone at this point that Basil’s gone missing? On Wednesday, October 18th, Basil left Nova Scotia to head south towards Philadelphia where the intention was to meet up with Joe Hauckes. I should have asked someone how long a sailboat trip would take, but I didn’t. And, so far, I haven’t heard from the traveling donkey.
I’m not overly worried. This isn’t the first time he’s disappeared. And, if he’s still on that sailboat, it’s unlikely that he has a great way of communicating with me.
If I don’t hear anything in a day or two, I’ll start to worry. But really, what could possibly happen to a code-writing donkey on a sailboat from Nova Scotia to Philadelphia?

Basil’s got to be the boatingist donkey I’ve ever known! I hope there is someone with a little nautical knowledge with him, though. He seemed to love the things when he was here in Savannah, but it was obvious he didn’t really have a clue about what it took to navigate one.
