Aug. 12th - Prideaux Haven

I This morning Rod's alarm went off at 3am so we could get up To watch the Perseid meteor shower.  There were so many stars out last night which we hadn't been seeing with the rain.  We did see a satellite going by & a few meteors which Rod could see better than me.  I was back in bed by 3:30 & Rod stayed out a little longer.

 After dinner Shadow was still outside & when I went out he would start racing around the boat.  Rod thought it was because Shadow thought I was chasing him which I do sometimes in the boat & definitely at home.  Eventually Rod went & got him, with the running still going on.

This morning I didn't get up until after 7:30 & it was 66'.   Keep forgetting to mention that we have lots of anchovies jumping out of the water around PH.  It's really interesting to watch them.  There are also schools of what look like herring.

Vanessa & I went paddling again today at 10am.  Neither Rod or Greg went although Greg was out for awhile in his row boat.  We visited with Jan & Diane on the Marion II.  They decided that they will leave today to avoid some wind on their way to Pender Harbour.

Tonight Greg & Vanessa came for dinner on our boat.  We made smoked pulled pork with barbecue sauce with tortillas & they brought salad & cauliflower.  First we did drinks on the flybridge & then had dinner up there as well.
