JUNE - Blake Island with Izzy

Boat camping at Blake Island was a blast! We went with our friends Jeff & Viola and their two kids. It was really cool to have a sailboat race go right by our campsite
 Edison and Charlotte followed their daughter Izzy around everywhere.

 Beachcombing...

It is so nice to have a playground on the Island.
 The dusk was a cool violet with lots of different shades due to the interplay of the clouds and water. Tillacum Village is on the island - a longhouse that hosts salmon bakes. Of course, they also have totem poles for the tourists....

 It was like pulling teeth to get the kids in bed. The full moon didn't help. But they were having a great time and being super cute.
 The full moon made for a super low tide and fun explorations of barnacles, seaweed and anemones.

 The Space Needle is in the background - showing how close Blake Island is to the city. We'll be back soon!
