Refuge Cove to Heriot Bay
|
Sailing
Toward the End
Our time together was coming to a close. We sailed away from Refuge Cove toward
our final destination. Two days left. So much left to say and do.
We had a wonderful sail past schooners and cruise ships,
to the same bay we spent our first night in a little more than a week before.
We arrived at Rebecca Spit just as the sun was setting. We had hoped that we could get
there earlier and explore Quadra Island more. But I do have a bad habit of sitting in the
calm and waiting for the wind. We miraculously found a space on the public dock in Hariot
Bay We went for a walk through "town" and I bought a great fishing had and some
new sunglasses. These, along with my bushy beard, completed my new look. Jimmy Buffet,
meets Jerry Garcia, with a sprinkle of Grizzly Adams. It works for me
After our walk
we went to dinner and got a taste of the local flavor. This was truly a beautiful place.
The sun set as kayakers returned from their days adventures. This is a place I would
like to return to someday.
