What better way to end a day on the water than at a beach party?  This one was co-hosted by an old friend - well, she's not really old, I've just known her a long time, and caught up with her last week.

This is the best use yet that I've seen for a kayak when it's not being paddled - filled with ice and festooned with libations.

Summer's settled in here, with its bipolar behavior between brilliant sunshine and cloudy chilliness.  I carped the diem today and did a kayak voyage on Puget Sound.  The water was preternaturally smooth, and, although it was only my second outing of the year, I decided I'd cross the sound from Salt Water State Park to Maury Island, between 2 an 3 miles.  I hit the water at the afternoon low tide, and there were many starfish and mussel clumps exposed on the pilings as I wound through them.

Here's a harbor seal spyhopping me.
