More Pictures
Starting about 20 from the end of here: https://picasaweb.google.com/nilact/OrcasCottage there are more pictures available from our last trip to the Island, the weekend of the 13-14. Yes. Our plan was to side, batten, and paint. You can see how well that went.
However, we learned a valuable lesson--we didn't try to beat the Friday rush; instead, we packed up the car in the evening after work and riding, and drove north until we hit traffic in Everett, then got off the freeway and had dinner--at an IHOP, as you do in such situations. We then re-entered I-5 at Marysville, this circumnavigating the remainders of the slow-down, and arrived at Anacortes about 1 1/2 hours before the last boat of the night, which was at 11:00pm. No stress, no time in traffic.
And then, of course, we slept in our Dacha.
