We are one day away from starting another part or our journey. Tomorrow we go just across the straight to Port Angeles to acquire our in transit permit. It may be a two night stay as we need to shop for our produce that we can not take across the border! Silly as it all comes from the same place as what we have here in Canada! The SSB is working just fine and I still have so much to learn on it but will have to do that on the way down. No one here to teach me and it is a complicated mess for me. We have most things that need charging doing exactly that, Lynn has looked at the layout of the marina and so have I. We need to clear out of here before 1100. The weather is suppose to cooperate...we will see. Lynn is doing her last laundry here and I am finishing my cleaning and putting things away. With feelings of trepidation, we look forward to tomorrow. I know that once we are out on the water, everything will be just great.

About: Dean & Lynn fell in love with sailing while on a "Windjammer Barefoot" cruise. Since 1990 we have owned 3 sail boats, taken lessons and are currently preparing "Solastra" for a southern journey. Now retired, we eagerly await the beginning of our adventure.
Extra: This adventure begins in the middle of our dream. It would be difficult to start from the beginning. Join us now as we prepare to embark on an adventure that we are sure, will be full of suprises.
