Coupeville WA

   The weather has turned a little cooler. It was a hazy day with a nice breeze here in Coupeville. Pat and Betty, our boat buddies arrived yesterday and we tied up together and shared a couple of drinks. Pat and Dave prepared the crabtraps and using Pat's dingy, they motored out to a likely spot beyond the point and dropped them for the evening. After dinner, the fireworks began all around the bay. By nightfall, after a beautiful sunset, we had 360 degree fireworks and lots of racket. Americans are certainly enthusiastic about splitting from Britain.

    In the morning, after a liesurely coffee and breakfast and pulling up the empty crab traps, we kayaked in to the dock and had a much needed shower, followed by ice cream cones in town. A great treat! Tonight we have reservations at Christophers Restaurant with Pat and Betty. We will take the Kayaks over again. This time trying not to get our best clothes wet. It will be nice to have someone else cook and do the dishes.

    Tomorrow we head out again about 8:00 am. We have stayed in one spot long enough.

Cheers! Pete.
