Seeking Simplicity

It has been a long time.  And much has happened and some changes have taken place – some rather big ones, and all for the positive in my book.  In my latest video I explain my absence from this blog and my YouTube channel, and share my latest “recipe”.

 

Boating in the San Juan Islands | Westcott Bay Shellfish Co.

One of my favorite spots to drop the anchor in the San Juan Islands is likely Garrison Bay. I like the great holding bottom, the hike up Young Hill, and the overall history of the place.  Another thing I like – it’s just around the corner from Westcott Bay and the Westcott Bay Shellfish Co.

I remember visiting the shellfish farm several years ago, when the place had fallen into disrepair prior closing for a while.  Since 2013, new owners Erik and Andrea Anderson have poured a ton of work into the farm, making it a place that is a pleasure to visit.

In my latest video, I visit the Westcott Bay Shellfish Co., where I meet the folks who work the farm and enjoy some of their tasty shellfish.  Check it out!

Garrison Bay: A San Juan Island Favorite

Summer is well under way, and warm sunny weather has been the reward for enduring a long, cold, and damp winter and spring.  The first day of summer found me anchored in another one of my favorite spots in the San Juan Islands: Garrison Bay.

Aside from excellent anchorage, Garrison Bay offers a lot for a visiting boater, in a setting that holds a lot of history.  In my latest video, I visit this San Juan favorite!
