LOWE INLET TO LEWIS ISLAND
Hallelujah! Woke up
to our first patch of blue sky and no rain in 10 days!!! What a welcome sight. Our 6 hour journey was
blessed with smooth waters and almost no rain.
So marvelous to again see the sunshine on the steep mountains’ carpet of
trees. We even “rode the wave” getting up to 8.8 knots. Cowabunga!
We had a rough night of winds and heavy rains last night. We
put out our stabilizers to help stop the rocking. While David was up on the
boat deck getting everything prepared to drop the “flopper stoppers”, there
were two fierce gusts of wind which definitely got his attention. For whatever
reason, we both didn’t sleep well last night. Hope to change that tonight.
As soon as I stepped out to launch the anchor, strong winds
and sprinkles began. Hope it doesn’t get worse.
Beautiful blue sky!
