Captain’s log, day thirty-one of our first real retirement voyage. Although we aren’t totally retired. And except that I am not the captain.

Today we lingered a second night. We were close enough to head home, but now we are appreciating our last full day away from any semblance of our normal life. This is pretty funny since our “normal” life is living on this boat anyway.

At the beach there was a boat that is participating in the R2AK race. It’s one where people row, sail or paddle from Port Townsend to Alaska. Fastest one there wins $10,000.

Only for the brave.

Some folks were dramatically rescued by the US Coast Guard.
