LANGLEY

Before I tell you about today I need to tell you about last night here at the campsite. I finished writing the blog and the humans started playing  a card game. All of a sudden there was the loudest noise I have ever heard and it sounded like it was right on top of us.  Forget what I said yesterday about the sound of freedom. This was the sound of doom. 

For the next three hours the Navy was practicing carrier landings. The Navy flies EA-18G Growlers, and they are LOUD! We all went outside to watch what was going on and they were flying so low that we could almost see the pilot. Back and forth they flew, over and over again.  It was scary and beautiful at the same time. It was like having an air show in our backyard. 

After a good nights sleep, Jim and Kathy T went for a bike ride in Deception Park. They came home frozen stiff. Later in the morning the humans decided to drive to the town of Langley at the  south end of the island. Langley is a waterfront city, known as “The Village by the Sea”. There are a lot of galleries, shops and restaurants in town and it’s a popular destination for whale watching.

This evening it’s very quiet and all the humans have left for a seafood dinner at Anthony’s in Anacortes. If my Kathe has the crab for dinner I know there will be no leftovers for me.
