This guy just keeps following me around ... maybe it's something I ate ... maybe I'll give up tuna ... better yet, I wonder what seagull tastes like ... chicken?

Anyhow, it's hard to believe that we will be leaving Whidbey Island next week, but our month here is almost up and we'll be moving down to Oregon for the next month.

Friday, though, we spent time going over to the mainland to an RV show where Jo-Anne was heard to say, "When can we upgrade ... there's a few more neat things I want in the RV."

I turned a deaf ear ... huh whadusay ... helicopter ears you know.

We then went and toured the islands a bit more. We went with the Gardners up to Erie State Park, just down the road from our RV park. The State park is a 1300 foot rock escarpment on Fidalgo Island near Anacortes which you ascend by a small winding one car road, but from which you have some pretty awesome views of the surrounding countryside. This one is looking north toward Mt Baker about 150 miles in the distance.

And this one is looking south toward Whidbey Island and our RV park.

Although I just can't figure out why I can't get any good cell phone or computer coverage ....

Buster agrees and is obviously deeply concerned about the same things.
