San Juan Island notes….

Through the ferry door window...this couple came from Oregon to visit the island last weekend, via the Sidney ferry....

Someone told me that if I put “San Juan Island” in the title of this posting, the Update would shoot to the top of the search engines. Sounds fun (and I’ll do an experiment any time I can – it’s always fun to see how things work), but I told them you don’t use a search engine to check in, anyway. We don’t need to search – we’ve already found each other, dear reader. Otherwise you wouldn’t have read that last line, right?

We are THAT connected…

Meanwhile, let’s see what might have happened around here….

• Lots of music around – it’s the Henry James Band at Blues Night tonight, and the Chameleons on Friday at The Rumor Mill. T:FLO is at Herb’s on Friday night…

Blendin' in - it's the Chameleons on Friday night at the Rumor Mill! That would be Dave (left), Travis, Kira, Dan, Carl & Michael!

• Leah Altman has got her business selling her clothes line going – I’ll find out more about it & let you know. Meanwhile, I’ll use the clothes line when the sun is out, but that’s different.

Doug, transformed....still know it's him, 'cause he's always smiling...

• It was cool to see Doug Guard last night, but I nearly didn’t recognize him – he had told his senior softball daughter (and slugger) he’d shave his longtime mustache if she hit a home run. You can tell by the picture Elle parked one last week.

• The Farmers’ Market moves outside this weekend – see you there at 10am, at the Courthouse Parking lot!

• The last week or so, there have been transient killer whales off the west side, over near Canada, and even down near Hein Bank….it’s always good to have friends drop by.

This weekend at the Fairgrounds!

• Meanwhile, the Flea Market is at the Fairgrounds – Norris Palmer tells me:

Great to see Bob (right) and ace guide dog Emilio walking with Jim up Spring Street yesterday...
