We left Roche Harbor yesterday around 11am. We thought we'd head south along the back side of San Juan Island where we'd seen the orcas the other day. We knew their spot…almost all the way down the island to the southern tip. We were motoring along as Kevin was trying…

Yesterday was a day of running errands and doing a little provisioning in Anacortes. The service department won't be starting on Airship's solar panels or its new stove until next week when the parts arrive, so we have the uninterrupted use of the boat this week if we want it…

Our evening moored at Spencer Spit was great. A cocktail on the top deck, sunset, water, wildlife, trees…it can't get much better. A sailboat was anchored a ways from us, but there were still no other boats at the mooring buoys on this side of the spit. We tried out…
