Around the isle…

Found this chilly weekend: A downy woodpecker here on San Juan Island...photo by Katie Jones (thanks, Katie!)

Hope your week is off to a good start (including that you’re warm this morning!) Check the weather forecast for this morning & then let’s get going:

Remember those two labrador retrievers who were looking for a home? They found one! Here’s more from Debbie Sandwith:

Thought I would share that much to our surprise we found that Toni was looking for loving home & we had been keeping a ‘quiet’ ear open for adult dog needing a new home (ours) – a perfect match was made today between friends!

Katie's new shirt - now available...and Happy Birthday, Granny!

• I know you’ve seen Katie Jones‘ great pictures (here’s her photo portfolio with Skyhopper Photography) – did you know she also sells shirts? Here’s one that you can get to celebrate Granny’s 100th birthday this year (right).

• If you don’t have Kels’ new albulm “Life Is Too Sweet” it’s time for you to get it – you’ll be glad you did! Drop by Harper Poesy, Compost It, Funk & Junk, and Isle Be Jammin’ and get yours today.

• There’s a good match: Sally at Island Rec tells me Conrad is coming on board to direct Camp Eagle Rock this summer…he’s the talented husband of Library Director Margie Harrison.

• Lunch for you today: It’s Noodle Bowl Monday at the Backdoor Kitchen!

The Chameleons (that's Dave, left, Dan, Kira on vocals, and Carl, with Michael behind Kira on drums) packed the Rumor Mill on Saturday. Photo by Janice Peterson (thanks, Janice!)

It was good to hear from Judy Adams, and even better to receive a reminder that it’s not always winter here on the island:

Just received this photo that my brother, Steve Garrigan, took last summer when he visited us on the island.  Thought it might be a good reminder that although the snow pics have been beautiful, we still have the wonderful spring and summer to look forward to!
