DAY 117 - July 26, 2017
Today was a weather day at Turnbull Island - and boy, was it!
The winds out on the North Channel were in the upper teens with gusts in the high 20s. No way we wanted to be out there cruising! But it was not such a nice day here in our protected anchorage either!
I took Baxter to shore just as soon as I got up. I weighed the question: before coffee or after? But before coffee won, and a good thing that it did! I took him in, he did his business, and we came back to the boat. Only moments after we returned to the boat, the sky opened up with a torrential rain storm, which persisted unabated until after 3:00 p.m.! The wind was driving the rain sideways! Here is a video of 15 seconds rain! Sorry, no other pics today!
After the rain let up, I took Baxter to shore again. One more time tomorrow morning. Turnbull Island is a great anchorage, but it has a very sorry excuse for a place to land a dog! I am getting far too good at acrobatics on rock ledges!
