Northern Exposure

Daily life in Craig really feels like we're living in a summer-long episode of the 1990s TV show "Northern Exposure". We've become part of the summer fabric of this place. It's an important part each day for us to catch up and chat with our friends in town and on the docks.

Below is the view of the harbor from the laundromat.

Test run near Wadleigh Island

Today we tried out the stabilizers or the "birds" as they are known. They work! It almost seems like we're flying an airplane.

Rainy days

Dinghy converted to a flower planter in front of the Alicia Roberts SEARHC clinic in Klawock.





It was raining and blowing so hard that we stayed inthe boat most of today. I baked a loaf of bread in our little oven. This evening the weather cleared for a glorious sunset and dinner with our boat neighbors. Life is good.

Preparation continues. Today we set up a business bank account and a post office box in Craig. Email us if you want our summer old fashioned mail address. Weather continues to blow. It should calm down to steady rain tomorrow.
