Lehner P. 1964 75 Oct. 4 up at 5:55 A.M. to go on early watch; deck still wet from last night's rain; rain threatened and caught up with us from the South at 6:35; Binion collected a Wedgetail which Huber immediately started mounting for the ship's wardrobe; rain also in P.M.; gained an hour at night; couldn't sleep so I went up on the bridge where I talked to Jim (the huge Hawaiian) about Michener and Hawaii - he informed me that "The Fort", also known as the "Big Five", is composed of the Dillinghams, Castles, Bowens, Waterhouses and Bishops; he said that the Kees in Hawaii were probably the Tongs; finally made it to bed and sleep about 2 A.M. - it appears to be hard to get away from the Sand Is. routine.
