Whidbey Island

 

There was a very low tide at Whidbey, but due to a variety of conflicts, Molly and I could only spend one day there.  Vangie came up and joined us.  It was like an episode of animal planet.

When we got up in the morning, three deer were eating apples from the tree in the front yard. I’m not sure what knowledge they gained, but they appeared contented.

We walked out to Baby Island and saw a baby seal that had been born that morning.

 

And of course there was the usual collection  of starfish, eagles, herons and seagulls on the walk out.

Back to Whidbey With Tim

 

Tim got  into town from Arizona with the proper clothing for Washington such as long pants, polar Tec shirts, and sun glasses, just in case we got some sun.  We were joined by Bridget, Jason, Mary, and Adam on Friday night. Joe, Kathy, and Tim headed up on Saturday for a week end of coffee, fire works and sunsets.

There was not a low tide, but there was a little bit of beach

 

and plenty of room on the dock for Joe and Adam to set off the fireworks

See the fireworks

The weather was over cast, but it cleared at night so that we had good sunsets from the dock

And finally, we headed into Langley to get some Sweet Baby Island Coffee

 

See people wait while Joe gets everyone's coffee

 

We had a good time reading books, eating crab, drinking wine and in general just leading a decadent life.
