I arrived in Port Townsend Saturday the 28th. I headed to the boathouse in Port Angeles first thing Sunday to check on it and pick up my kayak. It has been way too long since I have been paddling I paddled in Port Angeles Sunday and today in Port Townsend. My paddle today was out to the lighthouse at Point Wilson – about a 7NM round trip. The lighthouse is very cool as is the port townsend waterfront. I will be quite familiar by the time I leave on Nonchalant (August 1 🤞).
