There was no wind to go sailing so we went fishing with
Susan and Hugh and dropped the crab traps.
No fish or crabs but it was a lovely hot day. We enjoyed a freshly made seafood
chowder, (lingcod inspired) by Mae.
Yummy chowder!
All that hard work resulted in one tiny crab that said “Phew!” as it went back into the ocean.
Hugh and Susan have worked tremendously hard in
clearing a large plot across from their property. This area is a “common” area for neighbours
who may like to garden themselves. Susan and Hugh have a small garden with room
for more beds. 
They’ve been enjoying the fruits of their labor and we
especially enjoyed the fresh tomatoes, zucchini, and acorn squash.

he finished trimming the grass around the garden
After a tough morning being out on the water, followed by
some gardening and Mae picking blackberries, we sat down in Susan and Hugh’s
wonderful home for a delicious roast lamb with lots of garden treats.
Once again, the evening finished off with a beautiful
sunset, ice cream with blackberries, scotch and wine.
