Dear Family and Friends,
Happy May Day! We left on our big adventure this morning from our slip in Squalicum Harbor. We had a surprise send-off from Larry and Barbee Folenius and Steve and Joyce Glenn from our yacht club and Carola Anderson who brought mimosa makings, coffee, and breakfast pastries. Carola had just arrived home from a trip to Nepal. In fact, her husband Barrie was home suffering from jet lag. Our weather couldn’t have been better—sun and calm seas! We had a lovely four-hour trip to Friday Harbor on San Juan Island. We got here just in time to watch a decorated boat parade, a small cruise ship arriving, and of course the Washington State Ferries coming and going. It’s one of our favorite places! Tomorrow we plan to meet up with John and Roxie Caples from Olympia, our cruising partners for our long trip north.
We will keep this first posting short as our trip is very young, and there will be hopefully more to tell in future blogs.
Signing off,
Susan, Rod, and Katie
