Hummingbird flies into Sambuca after the Fake Flowers
Being ObservedA quiet night was spent in Hartley Bay at the public docks. It’s hard to believe that the kind folks of Hartley Bay were the saviors of all those passengers of the former “Queen of the North” upon her sinking. We did not see anyone around until dinner time, when all of the townspeople went to the School to have graduation ceremonies. There are no roads in Hartley Bay, but there is a board walk that is used by the towns people to commute via golf carts and mopeds and ATV’s. A very nice “Long House/Community Center”, Fuel, but no store. Apparently the owner of the store went to Prince Rupert one day and never came back.
While we were there, a sailboat and one of its passengers was brought in to see the nurses as the sailboat had hit a rock up Grenville Channel and the lady driving, had the Tiller smash into her collar bone upon impact .No damage to the boat, but the rather abrupt stop left the lady to be brought in for observation by the towns nurses to ensure that her injuries were not serious enough to be treated by the nearest hospital.
Dave finds a new friend in Hartley Bay, the mangiest looking black lab, who was just as enamored of Dave! She slept the night on the back of Dave’s boat and we jokingly asked Penny via radio the next day “Who does the strange dog on her swim grid belong to??”
A long day up Grenville Channel brings us to Prince Rupert at dinner time.
hahaha...
ReplyDeleteim from hartley bay and the people there have to be the friendliest people ever. im sad to hear the only living being you met was the black lab. you must understand, if it was the graduating student who stole the limelight, and justfully so. had it been any other night im sure you would had been greeted with giant smiles and some yummy food. i used to work at the marina, and i loved my job. two years ago i would have been there to greet you(if my cousin hadnt been celebrating getting her dogwood diploma that is).
sad that was ur experience...
not too often someone goes there and leaves only knowing the black lab, im sure the name is luke. could be wrong though.
