July 22 – Mike loves the big boats

While we were doing some early morning seal watching the fog rolled in from the southwest. It was eerie how large ships suddenly disappeared from view. The fog never made it to the shore but the whole strait stayed shrouded most of the day. We went north to explore Mitchell harbor. It is really small. We were unable to rent kayaks because we had no open sea experience. Further north at Roche harbor we found more lime kilns operations. Many of the original company buildings have been preserved. The hotel and limestone fireplaces are still standing. The harbor was full of boats and we were able to explore some 50-60 foot boats than were on sale. The opulence was incredible. Mike loves the boats and wants to live on one instead of a house.
