Christine and I took a weekend trip to Seattle so that she could visit her family, I could meet her parents for the first time and so we could get a little needed vacation. A large part of the trip was our adventure on Orcas Island, one of the San Juan Islands in the Puget Sound. We took a fairy leaving from Anacortes and came ashore, car and all. Over the next 2 days we explored the island: did many hikes, saw sites and visited the local stores, built fires and slept in a rustic cottage over 100 years old, right on the water. We ran the gamut of weather conditons including: snow, rain, sunshine, cloudy and foggy. We had to time our pictures just right so as to be able to capture the panoramic view before weather set in and covered it up. We had a great time-good people, good food, good competition for games..... good atmosphere!
