Greenhouse progress and a trip to Ketchikan aboard Sisu.

We had a wonderful visit with our good friend, David Spencer. Since fishing has been slow, David took our greenhouse to the next level. The entire greenhouse is made of salvaged materials, and it's turning into a thing of real beauty.

This past weekend, some good friends had a full-day stop in Ketchikan during a five-week cruise they are taking from the West Coast of the US to Japan. The weather conditions on Clarence Strait looked unusually favorable, so we decide to take our C-Dory over to Ketchikan to meet them. It was a wonderful mini-vacation! I forgot just how comfortable the V-berth in the C-Dory is. I slept better than I have in many moons. And the C-Dory is the boat in which we first came to Alaska. Lots of great nostalgia for us as we sat in Bar Harbor, watching the sunset.
