Friday June 21, 2019 Port Harvey to Port McNeil

Happy first day of summer everyone......you wouldn't know it up here, dark and dreary, but thank god the wind is now gone.  Spent a nostalgic night at Port Harvey.  Its all but shuttered until July 15 when I believe that Gail has someone coming in to manage moorage.  It was good of Lagoon Cove to answer the radio when we hailed Port Harvey to let us know what was going on.  Good to see that the neighbours (some of them) are looking after Gail's better interests.

This was our first visit since George passed away and we remembered all the good times we had at his and Gail's resort.  The most awesome pizza on the coast and great meals we have spent with friends (old and new).  If only we were 15 years younger, it would be a great place to set down roots and continue on with the tradition that they started.  Its the only respite from Johnston Strait weather and also a great destination spot.  Regardless of the neighbours oozing throughout the bay! 

Nature is taking its own back and quickly - the grass in their front yard is waist deep with game trails running through it.  Bear scat can be seen all around and the main docks are covered in shells from birds and otters and everything almost seems like it was left and not put away.  Gail if you are reading this, the restaurant sliding glass doors are unlocked and we fear that critters will get in and destroy the place.  Let whoever you have coming in know this and figure out a way to put a lock on it.

We tied up there yesterday afternoon and were followed in by two other boats.  It was quite snotty in Johnston Strait and we were glad to see the docks!
