Grey Skies in Gray's Harbour

Posted by radio from where there is no internet... About 100 miles south of Cape Flattery is a lovely little town called Westport, where we sit, weather bound, watching the winter storms roll by. We endured a rough 24 hours on our first offshore passage and the cats showed the least discretion of us all, at both ends. The cabin became unbearable, and the first port in the storm was here, Gray's Harbour, Washington, just north of the Columbia River. While seven loads of laundry churned, we indulged
in the best onion rings any of us have ever tasted. So it seems our timing was not so bad, as we find ourselves waiting out an intense low pressure system bringing storm force winds to this oft-ravaged coast. Another weather window should open next week, and we WILL make it to the land of sun and fun, come hell or high water - so to speak.
