Yesterday we arrived at Des Moines Marina. This will be Pacific Star's home port.

It was a good journey south.

Leaving La Conner and heading south. We passed the "Seafood and Prime Rib Restaurant" from last night.

The Man said, "This is boating ... hours of boredom". Hah! This is what I signed up for. It's been so busy I haven't had much crafting time. We're traveling at 8 knots (= 9.2 miles/hour). It will take us about 7 hours to get to Poulsbo. Time for sock knitting.
