Sunday we leave for Center Bay a small pod of dolphins come along side and pass our stern. They are so graceful. We arrive in Center Bay around noon, only 4 boats here. John and Midge are our guest so they tie up to us. Hudson and Dina come latter. Dina and I promise dinner for all 6 of us. A deer is grazing on shore while we have happy hour. Mergansers and Canada geese entertain us from the sea and crows and eageles from the sky.

Monday Midge invites Dina and I over for coffee and scones over reminiscing to view photos of all of us when the kids were very small. Boy does everyone ever look young. Midge cooks dinner for all today- a delicious crab casserole. Yum.

Tuesday-John and Midge leave in the morning for the Broughtons up North. Hudson and Dina wanted to stay until Friday but their generater isn't charging properly so they might have to go to Gibsons or Snug Cove. We head back to Vancouver in perfectly calm waters. Now getting into our boathouse was another story-a nightmare as unseen currents are running strong. Thank goodness our neibour was there to help guide us in after our third try.

REMEMBER-your best friend and you can do anything or nothing and have the best of time.
