The weather was gorgeous this morning as we left Langley and headed south to Poulsbo. Langley Marina as we left our dock: The water was mostly calm for the whole trip today: I got a bunch of work done this morning in Langley before we left, so I was captain…
Comments closed(We're there on the outside dock on the right, inside the breakwater) We left the boat and headed into town about 45 minutes after the Seahawks playoff game had gotten underway (a big deal around these parts), and the streets were deserted. ("They're all dead inside!") We wandered over to…

It's not that weird though, since sunrise was at 7:54am yesterday. Right behind us, the moon was slowly setting. Seriously, these were taken within minutes…
2 CommentsThis morning it was rainy rainy rainy at our moorage in Blind Bay. It had not been a super calm night, so we ended up sleeping until about 10am to make up for the other non-sleeping hours…the ones when we were out on the bow in the dark with headlamps,…
1 CommentThis is going to be a mish mast post of the past two days…because, why not? We spent Kevin's official birthday moored at Spencer Spit. We had some champagne, snacks (duck rillette, cheese, crackers, caper berries) and then a dinner of linguine con le vongole (with the clams) that turned…
