Wednesday

 

 

Hey everybody.  Let’s ditch Steve and Judy!

 

We got up this morning at 8 and looked out the window.  Every other RV that was camped here with us.

 

They’re all gone!

That was weird.

 

There is a tide here.

 

About 17 feet today.

 

And bald eagles.

 

We took a drive to the tidal flats.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Back at the boat harbor, we saw arctic terns.

 

And what’s that?

 

It’s a harlequin duck!

 

Had a walk to a mountain lake.

 

 

 

 

 

And picked off a chestnut-backed chickadee.

 

And found we had a new neighbor for the night.

 

I’m sure there is a more complimentary name for them, but Judy and I call them coffin buses.  They sleep 26!  Imagine that.  You ride in the bus part in the front all day, then crawl into your 3x3x6 cubby at night to sleep.  In our experience these are always German or Japanese tours.  This one happens to be German.
