Victory!
On Friday, we FINALLY got out on the ocean, in a boat! And it worked!
We got up at a reasonable hour, loaded up the boat with all of our paraphernalia…a packed lunch, thermos of tea, crab traps, bait, lifejackets, fish finder, bucket, gaff, etc. Then we drove to the boat launch in Sidney. It wasn’t very busy, possibly because the weather was overcast and nippy  although the weather channel had predicted sunshine. (Of course, the weather channel has advised us that Thursday was supposed to be rainy, so we didn’t attempt to go out…and then it didn’t rain until nightfall. Typical.
