Poets Cove Trip Day 10

We took a shuttle from Poets Cove to the local farmers market, and then walked to the village. Nice diversion and a chance to stretch our legs.

We never tire of watching for wildlife. Otters and a heron hang out in our "back yard" and I spotted a small pink thing in the water off the dock. A new boat friend who does underwater photography (www.stevezedekar.com) said it was a horned nudibranch. A type of sea slug and not all that common. (Not a great photo but you can see it just below and to the right of the reflection of the net.)

We ended the day at the factory-sponsored BBQ...in the sunshine.

Poets Cove Trip Day 14

Image
Today, Wednesday, is day 14 and our final day of this cruise. We are just rounding Browns Point and the Foss is in sight. We've seen more wildlife the last couple of days than we saw further north, including this tiny seal pup floating on a log. (Taking photos with a phone from a moving boat is challenging.) It's back to work tomorrow (in fact, Nick has to drive to Cispus this afternoon!) but we will be back aboard the Pelican soon! Glorious.

Father's Day

We left the Foss yesterday, amidst the tall ships in Tacoma for Festival of Sail. Spent the night at anchor in Gig Harbor and then  met my dad and two of my sisters for a quick boat ride and lunch. Happy Father's Day!

Cruising With Friends

Image
It's a beautiful (early!) morning in Eagle Harbor. With temperatures approaching 100 expected, it will be a nice day to be on the water. We met some friends (Coorie Doon and Blue Max) in Poulsbo on Friday, then motored over to Bainbridge yesterday. After some very interesting anchoring situations, we tied up at balls for the night. Don't know who these buoys belong to...but thank you. Just before leaving home on Friday afternoon, we made the decision to buy the Ranger 29! So...not sure if this is our last trip aboard Pelican. Stay tuned!
