IF YOU DON'T LIKE THE WEATHER WAIT 10 MINUTES


Another weekend trip to the island.  Friday night ramble up I-5, then caught the 7:50 boat.

The chores for the weekend included getting stuff to the dump.  Several years of accumulated stuff all stowed in the shed ready for disposal.

Canadian sailboats motor by.  Did they know what would be in store for them the following day?
These burn around 50 gallons an hour or so and they were zipping by.  Kinda wonder what the carbon foot print of the US coast guard looks like?

Saturday night dinner was excellent.  Duck Breast for appetizers then Elk for dinner.  Better than steak.  Really, really good.  Great company as well.  Note to self:  Shoot off a thank you note....
Sunday morning.  Calm at first....
The curious one
The subject of the curiosity



The wind starts to rise
Reefed jib, the wind hit close to 30 or so



The barometer fell, then hit bottom and bounced.  The front had moved on, the sky cleared, but the wind remained.


The sailboats were back, but they had their hands full.



A good weekend.  Productive and relaxing.



Took the shot of the rainbow from the ferry.  Nice way to end the weekend.
