Another great gathering...thanks so much, Pat & Patty. You were spot-on about Bellingham Bay, Patty. 3-5 ft seas to Eliza, then increasingly calmer. Many thanks to the cast of thousands who helped us launch ☺️ 'Til next time,

We are living vicariously through you tonight. 😊 We were in Blind Bay last summer and caught a few meteors around 2 am, as well as a clear view of the Milky Way. We're thinking about heading back there for the Perseid Meteor shower in August. Peak is the weekend of Aug 12-13, but the gibbous...

Thanks for pulling this together, Pat & Patty. We're hoping those gourmet eggs in a bag are on the menu again? We'll bring the herbs!

Thanks, Greg & Cindie. We're looking forward to catching up with everyone.

Barry & Patti: Thanks so much for making this such a fun weekend. It was great to catch up with old friends and make new ones. With Canada and so many states represented, it's no wonder this is the largest C-brats gathering. Hoping to join everyone in Victoria...Thanks, Susan and Tom for...

Thanks, Barry! Hey, I just came across a great link from WA State Ferries I thought I'd share. It shows real-time wind data, as tracked by the ferries. We've often found that the marine forecast isn't always accurate. And, Smith buoy doesn't necessarily tell you about conditions in Rosario...

So glad you're all OK, Pat & Salty crew. We'll get a late afternoon start from Twin Bridges tomorrow...need to wait out the tide. We expect to arrive about 5:30-6:00. Too close for dinner, so we'll likely catch up with you all when you wobble back to the docks. Barry: Somehow we ended up with...

Loved seeing the C-Dory line-up on F Dock. We counted 13. Thanks, Susan, Tom & Shadow for helping make such a great weekend. And special thank you to Neptune, Deputy Assistant Reverend Barry, and all the C-Brats for christening Sweet Pea. She was half lit from all the libations poured into the...

Hey Jim & Marti: We have a 2-prong anchor light you're welcome to keep, if you like. No longer using it. We'll bring it with. Looking forward to seeing you at dinner tonight! We've got a bank of three waterfront tables reserved at the Seafood & Prime Rib place on 1st Street. I think head count...

We'd love to take Neptune up on christening Sweet Pea, thank you! We'll bring greenery and some libations to share. Would also appreciate a safety check...we're mounting the fire extinguisher this weekend to prepare :) Thanks, Barry! _________________ Amy & Paul Sweet Pea | Camano Island

Thanks for the heads-up, Tom & hope you're feeling better, Susan! We're looking forward to seeing everyone again next week. We called in our reservation and were offered the 2 nights for 1 rate. We plan to arrive Friday afternoon. On another note, we made reservations for six at the Seafood &...

Patty & Barry: Thanks so much for organizing the gathering...it was a great,great gathering. So nice to connect with friends and meet new ones. We're looking forward already to La Conner. Pat & Patty: we're sprinkling fairy dust on you for tomorrow. We sense you're on to the next chapter...

Sounds like a good cause, Harvey. Could be fun. Might need to amp it up a bit to help the C-Brats/C-Dory clan to break through all the noise and make the 11 pm news. A PFD/C-Brats Lawn (Deck) Chair Drill Team video might do it. I can picture Jim (Wild Blue) as drill sergeant... Amy

What a wonderful photo, Pat. Thank you for sharing. We were looking forward to getting to know Dee this year....her spirit radiated so strongly, we were certain we'd have the chance to meet at the next gathering. Your stories carry her on with us. And, We are certain that she will revel in...

Looking forward to it!
