Day 5
I'll start out with a look back to last evening which I didn't get to post because of the lousy internet service at the marina when there are a hundred people with their phones and Ipads all connected to the wi-fi. The fishermen have left and the cocktail crowd hasn't opened their eyes yet this morning so the service should function at the moment.
We walked out to the outer harbor last night to watch the sunset. Now that Kathy is here, we seem to walk to the beach on a regular basis.
The sunset was nice last night.
As the sun hit the horizon, It appeared to melt into the water. I thought the silhouette of the pier walkers made an interesting image.
So with the sun down, we walked back along the channel and saw the tug "Zeus". It ran to about this point in the channel, suddenly stopped, did a u-turn, and ran back up into the lake. We think the captain probably discovered that he had lost his barge.
After a few days of hot and sticky, we need a jacket this morning. Don't know what the schedule might bring. If it calms down, we'll go and try to catch a fish this evening after all the tournament crowd vacates.
More later...
Well, it was a lazy day. Kathy did a little research on the computer (no doubt looking at the latest in fabrics)...
while I set out to troll the channel a little bit before the tournament fleet returned.
The fleet did return...
and weighed in a bunch of salmon.
We were going to give it another try this evening, but the skies are threatening. We left the dock and motored about a mile out of the harbor and then turned around and headed back to the marina. It was just a little too choppy and dark in the west to be real comfortable with a 7 mile trip out of the harbor.
Maybe tomorrow.
