June 19 - Weewanie Hot Springs to Kitimat

As the Sign Says

What you see from the bayside

Finally a Shave and Shampoo

Cheers

A discussion on World Peace?

It was a dark and stormy Day

Enroute to Kitimat, we stop at the third and final hot spring in the area.... We have renamed this trip to the "2008 Bowling Alley and Hot Spring Tour!" Two nice anchoring buoys in the bay and the water in the springs is a bit warmer than Bishop Bay.

Some rough seas leaving Weewanie and heading to Kitimat. Luckily its on our sterns so its just slightly uncomfortable. We pull into Kitimat around 7:00 pm and tie up to the dock in time for Happy Hour.

Profiles of who we are

"Shaman II" is a 48' 1973 fiberglass "Gulf Commander". Twin Caterpillar 3116. 500 gal Fuel (Gulp!) and 500 gal fresh water. We have owned her for 20 years and we are the second owner. We are self sufficent cruising machine with all the trappings of home. Mike and I are just over 60 and every chance we get, we "Live the Dream". We have one fabulous son who is the proud owner of his own boat, "Eye Candy"....aptly named after his sweetie, Shannon! Three of the sweetest Grandchildren you could have....Mr. Keaton and Coco (Cohen aka the Pope), and baby Harrison (Prince Harry).

Our first Mate is Miz Ruby the scaredy dog and our Commander in Chief is Mr. George, the wandering cat.

Mike and I have spent our summers for the last 45 years scouring the coast to see all that we can see in every nook and cranny our boat will fit into. The earlier years were spent as any normal boating family would, bringing the kids to desolation sound for 2 weeks of swimming! These days, we spend most of our time mid coast. Three trips to Alaska under our belt and 20 plus years hanging out in the Central to North Coast.
