This was good day to walk around the town of Gibson as we
found the Library, City Hall and the Post Office. We decided to find the other main shopping
area; however, that meant we had to walk up a very steep road (21% grade)
called “School Road.”
This is quite an interesting vehicle.
Persephone was the boat used in one of the longest running
t.v. series, “The Beachcombers” that ran from1972-1990. This little girl’s name is Persephone as
well. We like this ‘Persephone’ better.
Gibsons Landing Fishermen’s Wharf behind us.
We had a great dinner at the Blattlers’. This is Mae’s sister, Ginny with Bailey and
Rose. Al caught a Coho salmon the day
before. Oh yummy as it’s great to have
fresh salmon.
September 23 ~ Exploring Gibsons
During our walk on September 22, we discovered a cool book
exchange box on the corner of O’Shea/Shaw Roads. In order to get there, we had to walk the 21%
grade School Road. The exercise was
great! 
This was a very wet day.
In the afternoon, Mae hung out for a few hours with Ginny while Marty
was puttering about in the galley making soup stock and bread. Mae was sure he enjoyed the peace and quiet
without her. On the way back from Ginny’s,
Mae checked out Gibsons’ Zero Waste Reuse Store. Great idea!
Pets out for a walk on the dock.
A wonderful visit with Marc, Meg and Isabella who came to
our boat for ice cream and gingersnap cookies.
A future sailor!
