I spent much of the morning sitting on my log looking out across the strait longing to get a last glimpse of the Orca. They did not oblige, but I enjoyed the anticipation. After packing up we headed to Friday Harbor to await the ferry. The boys wanted to spend their time in the library, so Rich and I got to spend a couple of hours watching the boats, people and seaplanes in the busy harbor. We could not resist more seafood for lunch. The boys called us when they were ready to leave the library, only to be told that the car and camper were in the ferry line so they would have to walk back to town. They caught up to us pretty quickly and we were soon on the ferry enjoying the cruise back to Anacortez.
As we travelled south we noticed the dark rain clouds in the east. By the time we got to the campground the first drops were falling. After a takeout dinner of pizza and a huge downpour we returned to a campground lit up by emergency lights. The EMT's left with their patient and I was happy to get to bed.
