We met up with Eileen, Bill and Shelagh in Wigham Cove. It was pouring when we arrived and it never fails to surprise me that we can find each other out here in the middle of nowhere. As we approached their boat, we could see that the dinghy was out: Bill and Shelagh were out fishing. We raised Eileen on the VHF radio and invited her for fresh scones and tea. No sooner had she accepted our offer than Bill piped up on the radio to say "Did I hear something about scones?". Soon we were all on our boat having lunch which included cooked crab that Eileen brought with her. So much for being crabbed out, I ate it and it was really good. Bill and Shelagh have not caught any fish. This will not do. Shelagh is an accomplished outdoors-woman whom Bill credits with igniting his passion for fishing.
The next morning Rob and I went fishing.

We are docked in Shearwater tonight and tomorrow, we are picking up our friends Pam and Lyle in nearby Bella Bella. We are very excited to welcome them aboard for a few days! I will post again on (or around) August 2nd. Have a great long weekend.
