July 11-15

Sunday we took the ferry from Anacortes, WA to Friday Harbor to spend time with our good friends, Gary & Carrie, at their vacation home on Brown Island across from Friday Harbor.
Since both Gary and Carrie are excellent cooks we dined on delicious cedar plank salmon, blueberry pancakes and a Greek feast. Last night they treated us to dinner at the Duck Soup Inn in celebration of Randy's never ending birthday. We last supped there 25 years ago. They continue to prepare wonderful locally sourced ingredients, so glad they survived the pandemic.https://www.ducksoupsanjuans.com/
We spent our days playing pickleball on the court where we first learned the game 20 years ago; kayaking; picnicking at Pelindaba Lavender Farm https://www.pelindabalavender.com; cruising on their power boat "Avalon";
relaxing in their hot tub and enjoying the views of Friday Harbor from the deck; visiting with their son Kevin and meeting his fiance Meghan.
We are truly blessed to have friends as generous and hospitable as G & C. ❤️Читать далее
