Joan was down for a late afternoon nap, I was on the computer, when I heard a familiar voice: "Hey, Wild Blue, are you home?"
It was our friends from Port Isabel, Herb and Wilma, and Jake the wonderdog. They are spending another summer on Willie's Tug, cruising the Pacific Northwest. And tonight, they are in Friday Harbor.
Little Izzy bristled when Jake stuck his head in the cockpit... sometimes I have to remind her that she's a 7 pound cat. We visited for a bit on our dock, when Herb noticed that it was Happy Hour - we moved the foursome to Willie's Tug out on the breakwater... the dock is wider, plenty of room for 4 comfortable chairs out on the dock. An adult beverage and lots of good conversation - it was good to reconnect, since we haven't seen our friends since we left home.
We moved the party to the Blue Water restaurant, where we watched Herb's complexion redden up as he ate ahi with wasabi. More good conversation and catching up. Our waitress let us know that we were her "second table"... not for the night, but she is new here. She did a fine job, the food was good, and it was all a nice treat.
Happy Hour...
The last bit of light as we walked back to the boat...
