This morning's office view: We've been at Eagle Harbor on Cypress Island for the past two days. It's quiet, there's good cell signal (and therefore, good internet), there are plenty of hiking trails, and it's only an hour cruise from Anacortes. It's easy to be super productive in an environment like this,…

Part Two We said goodbye to Sissy and Bob on Thursday morning in Anacortes and spent the day working and doing a few errands. Our friends Becki and Stephen drove up from Portland and met up with us on Thursday night. On Friday morning we headed out for Sucia Island…
Comments closedPart One We left Portland on Tuesday and popped up to Anacortes to do a little cruising around the San Juan Islands. We've been busy catching up with friends since we got back from Alaska and this week we decided to combine that with some boating! Our friends Bob and…
Comments closedWe left Ganges Harbour on Salt Spring Island this morning around 7:30am. Last night's dinner at the Hastings House Bistro with our friends Michael and Nancy was a great time! I'm so glad we were able to stop here and meet up with them before heading home. The sky was…

3 CommentsRemember how we were the only boat anchored in Melanie Cove in Desolation Sound? By the time we went to bed there were 11 boats in there. Mid September when we’ve hardly seen another pleasure boat in weeks! Also, when we left the cove at around 8:30am or so, not…
Comments closedShoal Bay, BC to Melanie Cove in Desolation Sound, BC We left Shoal Bay at 6am this morning so we could be at Dent Rapids by slack tide (7:15am). It looked like this: See those little lights up ahead? That's not a line of several boats waiting for slack at…
7 CommentsIt was super calm this morning at Port Harvey and after getting a couple of George's famous cinnamon buns (and a bonus loaf of homemade bread!) we said goodbye and headed for Johnstone Strait. Johnstone Strait was not bad at all, even though we were supposed to have current against…
6 CommentsWe were looking forward to coming back to Port Harvey on our way back through The Broughtons. We had such a fun time here in May when we were on our way north with the Waggoner flotilla that we even joined the Port Harvey Yacht Club. Here we are flying…
