This Costco shopping cart doesn’t look all that bad, considering we bought some stuff for the boat and some stuff for home!

The moon came up last night behind the spit and I managed to get a couple of decent photos of it. Here’s my favorite: Sun coming through the trees over on the spit this morning: We had some coffee and then dinghied to shore to do some hiking out on…
