Happy 4th of July!

July 4th                         Odile displays a wonderful flag quilt that she has made to celebrate America’s birthday.  Pam is reading a book and is just in the middle of passages that talk about Nixon and Watergate giving rise to thoughts about what our country is currently going through and wondering what will be different after our 2 month hiatus.  


We had planned on going to Millbrook Cove at the head of Smith Inlet for an early scoot around the outside and into Rivers Inlet tomorrow but the ebb tide combined with the wind made for some very choppy seas so we ducked up Boswell Inlet instead.  We had a nice little sail with our headsails only, running with the light wind all the way to the end of the inlet and into Boswell Cove for our anchorage. 


Walt and Odile set their shrimp pot hoping to do as well as they did last evening.  Carl tries his hand at ling cod again but no joy.   He does catch two dog fish (trash fish in the shark family) and numerous sculpin and flounder.


Dinner is Pam’s pressure cooker fresh crab and Odile’s warm from the stove top “pan bread” and their fresh harvested large shrimp.  Odile has sautéed them in olive oil, butter and garlic.  Bon appetite!  Happy Fourth of July everyone!
