Fisheries Supply Swap Meet and Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival

It was a busy, and hot Saturday, yesterday here in the Pacific Northwest.  Up early and drove to Seattle for the fall Fisheries Supply swap meet.  Lots of people with spaces and tons of good boat stuff (well mostly it was) to sell.  Since I don't have a boat, there wasn't anything for me to 'need' but Terri found a few good deals.
Then we headed to Port Townsend for the 35th Wooden Boat Festival.  What a great day looking at boats and boat stuff.  A friend, Jeanne Rhynne, has her boat Grace in the show, so we certainly looked her up.  We also ran into lots of Olympia sailor friends, Mary F., Micki & Rob, Maria & Bryon, Jo & Scotty.
And what a surprise when I also ran into some sailor/cruisers I met over 3 years ago in Mexico.  (I thought she looked familiar.....)  Ewona & Arek (hope I got the spelling right); they used to have a large sailboat named Ariel and sailed to the South Pacific in 2008.  And they were here with Rich on Jazz, a Beneteau 38 sailboat. He's here in the northwest now but has done lots of cruising since I last saw him over 3 years ago.  What a small world.

Ariel - Arek & Ewona's boat - they sold her in New Caledona a couple years ago.  This photo was taken in  the Barra de Navidad Lagoon.  Did I mention she makes delicious cinnamon rolls......

I met Rich from Jazz, first in San Diego in the fall of 2007 and this photo was from Turtle Bay, Mexico.
