Arlene and Savannagh, in the middle of Georgia Straight, happy as can be.  We were going to go Snug Cove on Bowen Island for Savannagh's birthday, but Arlene had a couple of days off right at the same time, so possible change in plan.    Let's see, short trip to somewhere familiar or a long trip to somewhere new.  What to do, what to do ...   easy call!  Arlene would take the ferry over to the mainland as a walk-on, and we would "drive her back home" on First Edition. UBC/Point Grey behind us. Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands ahead. Arlene making a funny face .. not sure why, as she claimed to be having the time of her life! The dock at Vesuvius Bay, on Saltspring Island.  Damned expensive place to tie up, given NO facilities whatsoever, but it was also walking distance to Arlene's house. The amazing sunset mostly made up for the expensive moorage.
