Rainy Dayz in the San Juan Islands








Steve, Lisa, Jess, and Dayne joined us in Friday Harbor. Finding anchorage here was a real pain due to deep water with little swing room. We finally found a spot free of cable lines, wrecks, buoys, or other boats. We used a stern line to keep ourselves safe from swinging on a long chain. 

We spent the afternoon exploring Friday Harbor. Jess loved the whale museum. We had a great lunch at the Hungry Clam and motored over to Blind Bay to anchor. The rain did not deter us as we explored the bay by dinghy, alternatively motoring around and practicing our rowing. Lisa was a champ! We explored the small state park island and hung out on the boat. Dayne, Steve and Alden installed some new radio equipment. We had popcorn, smoothies, and artichokes for dinner. The evening ended with a game of Cards Against Humanity. Alden's 13 year old brother won, but both his parents were fierce opposition, edging out the three of us that made up the only demographic with which you would normally play this game.

The rain continued the next day and we headed back to Friday harbor to drop off the family.
