Anacortes WA

Howdy to all. I can't believe it's been a week since our last chat. My grand boys keep me busy, and I am so happy to have them with me. We spent the day on Orca's island, had a nice lunch at the Bayview restaurant. Drove to the state park and walked to the cascade falls tough hike. Made the trip to the summit of Mt. Constitution. FYI this island was featured on Rachel Ray. She gave great suggestion on places to eat and things to see. However we watched her show after our road trip. Yep a day late and dollar short. Our friend from Texas joined us for the day. She was in WA. to see her son return from deployment. He had been out to sea for about 7 months. Her hubby Danny was able to do the tiger cruise with his son. Our grandsons were able to go abroad the aircraft carrier and of course they were amazed Ryan [12] wants to join the air force to be a top gun. Cody [7] wants to be like Kevin. {he is the son of Danny and Phylis} They took to us to a BBQ place really great food. I was surprised since I was not in Texas. Afterwards it was time to say our goodbyes to our Texas friends. We had to rush to catch a ferry to get back to Anacortes. Ferries are the means of transportation here. The schedules are not like Bolivar running every 20 min. Very long wait if you miss it. You must pay attention to scheduling, actually it is best to make reservation. The distance varies depending the your destination. Some are equipped with a snack bar and beer bar not to shabby. So I guess you know where Phylis and I hung out.

Today we attended church after the service a coffee fellowship. Many had suggestion on things to do and see. So we shall have another busy week. After church we planed to have lunch and head to the beach. However the weather was cloudy and the temp 61. You poor melting Texans HAHAHA.

Well you guys have a good work week and be safe.

Love to all Juju
