Final Run
I am sad to report that we are making the short leg back to Anacortes from James Island. There was much libation around the fire last night, possibly even a little too much. Had a great time and met some new folks. We will be tied up in 30 minutes.

Really????
Sharks take over....last night on the boat and the sharks have taken over. I was sittin eatin my crab holding on to the barbi pole and shark attacked again. Bob is building building a fire on shore...why??? More to follow.
Last Full Day
We have relocated to the east side of James Island, sadly for our final night on the boat. Starting out on a hike around this small island which is all state park.

Sunset at East Sound
What gorgeous blues and pinks. Having a rum on ice, wishing I didn't feel like I was beat up by a Mexican drug gang after that ride. 
Riding on Orcas
Well, riding horses on Orcas Island is more correct. Had a beautiful ride on the most challenging trail conditions I've ever been on. Their website said a 3 and a half hour ride and it was every minute of that. I don't know who was happier to see the truck and trailer, me or the horse. 
Island Packet In the bay
Our slip mate from last night heads north toward east sound. The Island Packet 40 is a great boat and this one is a charter from San Juan Sailing in Bellingham. Future charter?
Nice way to start the day
Had an hour long paddle in the kayak followed by some hot run and pool time with my honey. Rosario continues to impress. This will definitely be a repeat destination.

Rosario is amazing
The trip isn't over yet, but it's going to be tough to top this place. The marina is small and friendly The views are incredible. Even the deer are chill'axed here. I fed this one clover blossoms from my hand!
Entrance to Cascade Bay
Pulling into Rosario Resort with its distinctive white mansion on the point. Today is a little cloudy but very pleasant temperature. 
Goodbye Friday Harbor
Got some more shopping in this morning after that great breakfast, and cast offf dock lines at 1145 enroute to Rosario on Orcas Island. Eddie Bauer was apparently born very near there in the late 1800s.
