All the conveyances...

We have been getting our three days off each week, just like we agreed on.  Well, until this week.  The owner asked if I could take his boat shift for him tomorrow.  Sure - it's the season.

We had a lot of fun with our trip yesterday.  Working on Wednesday means there are some "both of us" chores that need to get done today.  Turns out, we ran all our motorized conveyances today, with the exception of the dinghy.

First order of business: breakfast out.  We started out with that an hour and a half earlier than usual, to time it so we wouldn't have to wait.  The next task was shopping - Joan planned on a lot of stuff, so we took the truck instead of the scooters.  It was the first time in weeks that we used the truck.  I almost forgot how comfortable Big Red is.  We took care of a few other "running around" errands while we had the truck out.

Back to the boat, and it was time for our weekly "once around the harbor" with a stop at the pump-out.  Wild Blue hasn't been getting many hours on the motor this season.  Back from that, it was boat-clean-up time.

This afternoon, I was needing some scooter time.  No time to take them off island this week, but we have our favorite roads here on the island.  Scoots uncovered, getting ready to ride...

Through town...

In spite of being deep into the tourism season, the roads around the island were reasonably light on traffic.  Well, we stayed off the main roads...

On the west side, we stopped to check out the views of Haro Strait...

I did do a little "work"... we saw whales, and there were no boats with them.  I sent a text to the boss, giving him location and direction.  Up the road a ways, we found a small turnout that we haven't seen before...

 

The view from that spot...

We took turns leading the way.  Joan took us by the lavender farm - I thought, for sure, she was going to stop... nope, right on by.  More riding...

We stopped for pizza for an early supper.  Fueled up the scoots - we both bested 100 mpg.  

Tomorrow, I will be working.  Well, Joan will be "working," too, but around our boat... the list of "honey-do" projects she would have left for me is her list now.  ;-)
