Had to bring the chickens into the shed row...you can see the purple clouds in the background.

Coop has crank up/down wheels behind it. I love the chickens!



The best news is that we are down to one horse and a border...pony now in Aiken with my Sister.

Got in a nice day trip over to Whidbey Island, it's 55 miles long and only about an hour away and a favorite destination most anytime of year.

At about the halfway point on the West side is a spot named Ebey's Landing.
It was the first non native establishment and thrived at the time.

The only indication of it's former life is a huge old abandoned road house that put up travelers back in the 1850's.
It's now a National Historical Reserve with a fantastic loop trail that climbs the bluff for nice views out towards the Peninsula and then descends to the beach- best timed for at low tide for plenty-O-beach. That day had a small minus tide, just right!

Weather was supposed to clear but the marine layer was persistent until we were on our way home. Nice respite from the blazing 80 degree weather we have been enjoying.

View of the bluff from the parking lot


Looking down at the saltwater ponds from the bluff


Looking back towards the parking area and Fort Casey in the distance


Bunch a beach


Hiking, biking, traveling and all round good sport/companion


Not happy about being picked up

Quick pawn shop flip. Cleaned up nicely. Took a while to get it working properly, dirty pots. Sold the amp already. Didn't even have it for 6 hours. Facebook market place, can't complain.

I don't often go do the "touristy" stuff but my Sister suggested a Whale watching boat trip out of Anacortes and through some of the San Juan islands almost into Canadian waters.

Captain found a pod of about a dozen Biggs Orcas almost up at the Northern tip of San Juan island that he slowly approached, cut the engines and they cut right in front of the boat 50-60 yards away.
Mom with her youngest were in perfect sync, the rest usually surfaced not too long afterward. Very cool!
The boat was a big twin hull that cruised at about 25 knots and got right up to speed quick.
