  • Kingston | Everett | Deception

    Another 🦀 limit in Kingston! And another pizza, this time a NY style. Not bad but not as thin and crispy as I like. We moved on to spend a couple of nights in Everett. They’ve rearranged guest moorage since… Continue reading

  • Oro Bay (so nice!) & on to Jarrell Cove

    Oh the sounds of Oro Bay… occasional (and low-level) boats, cars, aircraft, and trains. Wildlife aplenty…and the gentle on and off cycling of a working refrigerator! Boston Harbor Marina, just north of Olympia, is written up very nicely in the… Continue reading

  • 4th of July in Friday Harbor!

    What a fun weekend! So many people on the island! We checked out Kit’s (Nick’s sister) new-to-her lovely condo on Perry Point, met up with Mike and Deb aboard Aris, and also with Steve & Tracey (who stayed at Kit’s).… Continue reading

  • Sequim & John Wayne’s Waterfront Resort

    We arrived in Sequim Wednesday and found our spot at JohnWayne’s Waterfront Resort. Read about this here: Although our spot was tucked in a back corner that seemed like an afterthought, it was grassy, roomy, and fairly private. The resort… Continue reading

  • Happy 40th!

    We attended our two oldest grandsons’ “moving up” celebrations, Mac from Kindergarten to first grade, and Ren from Transition Kindergarten to Kindergarten. A highlight was Ren jumping off the stage and doing “The Worm” dance. No one saw that coming!… Continue reading

  • North Saanich | Victoria

    Our oysters in the half shell, the spinach dip, and the mussels from 1948 Bistro at Mañana Marina were all excellent. Again, very nice facility and we hope to visit again. We needed a stop over on the way to… Continue reading

  • Nanaimo | Ladysmith

    As is often the case, little to zero cell coverage and no Wi-Fi at times. Video of moon jellies in Tod Inlet take two: We finally got into the Sea Life Centre on the Telegraph Harbour Marina dock. It’s a… Continue reading

  • Genoa Bay

    It was a relatively short cruise (13nm) Tuesday from Tod Inlet directly north to Genoa Bay, on Vancouver Island, off of Cowichan Bay. Not many boats on the guest docks. We were here with Coorie Doon in 2023. It’s a… Continue reading

  • Ganges | Sidney | Tod Inlet

    We pulled in to a near-empty Kanaka Wharf (Ganges, Salt Spring Island) on Thursday. The local boats vacated their over-wintering docks on May 1, and this season hasn’t quite kicked off, so plenty of space. The weather has been very… Continue reading

  • Otter Bay Marina & Unexpected Friends

    Fun boating trip so far! Except for the fridge; more about that later. We left home on Tuesday morning with no firm itinerary, just a general idea of heading into B.C. and the Gulf Islands. After loading our stuff we… Continue reading
