We decided to be politically correct and save the salmon. I’ll pick some up at the grocery store later!<\/p>\n

Actually, we had a great day on the water. The brother who took me is an older man who became a Christian later in life but is a sincere believer now. He and his wife are real encouragments to us. We spent the day mostly on the water, stopping for lunch at a remote, private little beach. He has a portable stove which we quickly set up to perk a pot of coffee [perked coffee in a camp pot is absolutely the best coffee in the world].<\/p>\n

The fish are safe (from us), but the day was good. We saw all kinds of activity on the water, a cruise ship heading in (which we passed under the bow when we came in to dock), numerous whale watchers heading in and out, our navy doing exercises with a couple of boats and some helicopters, a crew of citizens heading out diving, seals sunning themselves on the rocks, and NO SALMON.<\/p>\n

I did have a soft ice cream cone on the way home as a consolation prize. We have the best soft ice cream I have tasted anywhere in a special store right here in Victoria. If you come visit, I’ll treat you to some.<\/p>\n

Don Johnson
