Sunset last night, shot from the ferry as it leaves the dock in Anacortes...
Hope your week is off to a great start, and that you get a chance to work on that 12-hug program of yours (you KNOW you need 12 hugs a day to stay healthy, right?)
Watching birds from the bow of the ferry....
Here’s some stuff going on around us:
• Remember we talked about how Jeanine & Mark Earnhart were filmed by the Today Show folks?
The last word (which could change!) that Jeanine heard yesterday is that it will air this morning at 8am or so (they said 8:08am) in the second hour of the show.
Let’s see how it turned out!

• I know you like killer whales, so I’ll be you like this little YouTube vid that Jay White took when he went out with Jim Maya last week.
They were just north of Patos Island in the Strait of Georgia.

• Candace (the San Juan Farmers Market co-manager) is excited to report the Farmers Market is ready to move – here’s the deal:
The San Juan Farmers Market is moving! The market will set up for the first time at the Brickworks on Saturday, September 10. Come find your favorite vendors and their delicious produce, colorful bouquets, fresh seafood and meats, grass-fed burgers, hot sausages, baked goods, pizza, and more!
The Brickworks is at the corner of Nichols Street and Sunshine Alley in downtown Friday Harbor. Off-street parking has been graciously offered for the Saturday market by Mi Casita, Key Bank, the San Juan County Health Department, and Wells Fargo Bank. Short-term parking is available at the Brickworks, and there will be a Veggie Valet for shoppers who wish to check their purchases at the market for pick-up later.
Market vendors and the Market Band look forward to welcoming you to their new home at the Brickworks on September 10, 10am-1pm.

Bob Jones (right) hosted his graduating class' 50th reunion (Brentford, South Dakota!) here on the island this past weekend, and welcomed classmate Gary to San Juan.
