August 6 - Dawsons Landing

We came back to Dawsons Landing to drop of Quina and Dylan who will take a Grumman Goose aircraft on the first leg of their trip home.  Quina is not keen to fly on this small amphibious aircraft, and Bill does not miss an opportunity to (jokingly - ha ha) fuel her fears.  Nevertheless, she was brave and even funny as she boarded the plane.  





The Wheelers - Quina, Dylan, Bill, Eileen and Casca

Before he left, Dylan generously gave us two crabs.  Rob has cooked the crabs and put a bottle of white wine in the freezer to chill.  It is a sunny, summer day and we will have a nice evening here.


Female crabs must be thrown back.  The one on the left is a female -
with a larger white area on the underside.  

There are several small recreational fishing boats nearby.  They have set up a tent camp on their dock and they are making a lot of noise.  The dock owner warns us that they will be rowdy tonight.  Until 9 p.m.  Then they will reportedly crash so that they can get up at 5 a.m. tomorrow and go fishing again.
Now that we are officially on our way home, we can estimate that we will round Cape Caution again on or about August 11th (weather permitting).
