Retirement trip almost over?

WOW, we can't beleive we're back. Well we aren't really back yet, but when you enter Desolation Sound and anchor with hundreds of other boats...you are back. During the 3+ months we often had anchorages to ourselves and experienced wild Alaska and Canada. I'll admit the Sunshine is wonderful. Sorry for the lack of computer connections and minimum postings.

Locals said this was the 1 day of Summer for 2012! It rained and was foggy for the next week. We headed out to cross Dixon Entrance and stopped in Foggy Bay for the night. A pleasure tug with another retired couple aboard said they had been trapped there for three days due to bad weather. We both made it to Prince Rupert the next day.

Weather has been cold and rainey up North, Fishermen have said the Salmon haven't come in because it's too cold. We are going to travel south to get warmer and try fishing.

This outhouse is the only public restroom in Tenakee Springs. Next to the hot springs. Two pickups in the whole town...a fuel truck and a fire truck.
