August 15 and 16

with full batteries we checked out and learned their pump out was broken so a brief trip back to Friday Harbor was necessary. Then on to Shaw Island, Parks Bay, 48 33.6N 122 58.7W It is a private bay, UW research site with protected anchorage, no fishing allowed. Only crabbing and then only Wednesday thru Saturday. No shore access means no dogs on boats, Squishy loved that. Beautiful and reasonably quiet even with 20 boats there.

For our last trip we bought a Gunkholing guide book, written in 2000. It stated it could hold 14 but they had never seen more that 6. Things are a changing. Including the weather. Perfect by my narrow expectations and expected to last thru the week between 70 & 80 degrees. Gotta love it and so pleasant we stayed for Sunday. Doug pulled out his guitar and we had our own little church service.
