ON THE WATER

We had a lovely day on the water yesterday with some folks we met last month, here. There were nine others besides us, and we went all the way over to James Bay on Prevost Island. In Swanson Channel, we saw a whale-watching boat we'd never seen before...
... and then this beauty (an old Chris Craft, but MUCH older than ours!) went by:
... and when we pulled in to James Bay on Prevost, this youth group was just leaving...
Michael had time to schmooze with the ladies...
I had time to knit.... 23" done on the stole...
... and I'm playing with a whole new scarf design/pattern...
We were back at the marina by 4:30, in sunshine, blue sky and calm seas!

Forgot to show you this yesterday. . . the locals, when they need to check something on their boats, 'haul out' by tying up to the government dock walkway across from us and waiting for the tide to go out...
... but it must not have been anything serious because he sailed out past us as we were coming home!
