SJI Summer Day 12 - No Room at Jones Island!


I am including a photo here of the gorgeous sunset from Saturday, from Cliff Island looking out past Nob Island. (Steve took the photo, so that’s Stay Awhile’s bow in the frame.)

As we were cooking a nice spaghetti dinner on board, the boat next to us came in and offered us some crab. People are very generous with their freshly caught seafood around these parts! We saved that crab for tonight.

We got a late start this morning but managed a quick bike ride up the road to check out the rental house on Davidson Head at Neil Bay. Looks nice…but there is some concern about shallow water at the dock. Unfortunately, my front tire went flat overnight. Pumping got me there and back but we’ll have to find a shop next week, probably in Friday Harbor, for a repair job.

We are trying something new – instead of deflating the kayak and putting it away in it’s bag, we tied it to the roof. So far, it seems to be riding up there just fine.


On the way to Jones Island State Park, we saw this very unfortunate situation – yikes! We saw the Coast Guard helicopter first…


No room at the dock, and no empty mooring buoys…plus a pretty full (and small) bay at Jones Island, so we are continuing on to Prevost Harbor, Stuart Island.
