Friday Harbor to Blind Bay (and more eagles)

We’re now in Blind Bay on Shaw Island.  A much more laid back and quiet island, just a two hour ride from Friday Harbor, we anchored here in about 25 feet (at hight tide) about noon.

After lunch, we jumped in the dinghy and headed to the ferry dock where we had a nice three hour, almost six mile walk back across the island.  What a lovely place.

OK, and we saw more eagles.  A bunch of them.  Almost more eagles here than seagulls.  We’re sure to become nonchalant about them, but WOW, it’s so amazing to see five Bald Eagles soaring above the boat just before sunset.

Just in case you didn't read where we are.

No "pre-fab" signs on this island.

A beautiful, hand crafted kiosk selling local seeds. Amazing to find this just sitting out in the middle of nowhere.

Oh, and a couple of the eagles...

  1. Jumping in here a little late. Problems around here screwing up things. My back/hip are in revolt and we nearly lost Daphne to anaphylactic shock. Both of us in recovery.

    I love the signs. So calming and welcoming compared to soulless industrial made ones. Real humans must live there! Are there any pirate ship hidden treasures to be found? Keep an eye opened.
