Hi Peter
Thanks for asking about me. I'm still lurking!
I don't think I fished at all last year. Rebecca and I had a three week trip in Provence in September to celebrate our 25th anniversary, and vacation days were at a premium. This year, at least I've got two days scheduled out of LaPush, with my brother-in-law and nephew from San Diego and my wife's 80-year-old uncle from Buffalo. We didn't exactly pick a good year for the big family salmon outing, did we! Might have to go bottom fishing instead.
Now I'm just trying to get a good coat of wax on Cheeto so I can put her back in the water for our season of weekend cruising. But it's been hard to find the time for that chore since I started playing with the Gig Harbor community orchestra and the Bremerton Symphony. Their seasons just finished. I love it, but next year I need to plan to do a little less somehow.
This Saturday I'm supervising a volunteer work day at Bandix dog park in Olalla, but after that, the decks should be clear for awhile. Eagle Island, here we come!
