This morning's sunrise (taken from our moorage in Fox Cove, looking toward Fossil Bay) was tough to capture in a photo. The glow coming from behind that forested hill was much cooler in person. After breakfast and a bunch of work, we dinghied into shore to do some hiking. Sucia…

We celebrated New Year's Eve last night in Prevost Harbor on Stuart Island. We met up with some friends (Dan and Eileen, and their Nordic Tug 32 "Fortunate") on their boat for happy hour and then dinner. Dan and Eileen made a delicious risotto with chicken and we brought champagne and…
4 CommentsWe're back in the San Juan Islands and the weather is lovely! We came up on Sunday with some family in tow and took a quick little two-hour excursion in Airship over to Cypress Island and back in the rain. It was still fun, but we're happy the weather has improved…

We arrived at Friday Harbor on San Juan Island right around 1pm. We had a Thanksgiving dinner reservation for 3pm…

4 CommentsAfter hiking (and ALL THOSE MUSHROOMS) yesterday morning, we left Matia Island and decided to take our time getting back to Anacortes. We went the long way 'round the west side of Orcas Island. We didn't see any whales, but it was a lovely cruise. Oh yeah, this was the sky…
