TAKATZ BAY ON ANCHOR

Monday, July 6^th

Well what do you know - for once the weather predictions were correct – awoke to pounding rain this morning. Made for a cozy morning with the diesel heater going full tilt and a hot cup of coffee in my hand. John and I spent a couple of hours this morning researching itinerary options for the next 10 days or so between here and our next major stop of Ketchikan. The wind arrived this morning as well and we are clocking gusts up to 30mph in our protected anchorage, so can’t imagine what Chatham looks like! John and Greg headed out fishing a little bit ago (crazy town) so I hope it’s worth it! When they left the rain had subsided a bit but as I sit here writing this blog, it is back to full on dumping. We are swinging around with the wind gusts but thankfully our anchor seems solidly holding all three boats. Boys came back skunked, seems the only thing they are catching is rock cod which they are throwing back. The rest of the day was so unremarkable (but windy) that I can’t even recall what we did except sit inside and admire the surging waterfalls around us, supposedly today is the super soaker of 2-3” of rain, so far it’s holding true.

I took no photos today, so once again revisiting favorites from the past.
