Forest Island

0900 position 48-40N 123-20W.  At anchor off of Forest Island

We had a hidey hole picked out on Rum Island, but found a small sailboat anchored there in a manner that prevented anybody else from using the cove as well.  Matt scanned the chart and found a possibility on Forest Island about a mile away.  We moseyed over and anchored in a small cozy bay on the east side of this half mile long Island.

We could tell the island was private by the multiple signs posted on trees facing the bay and beach, "Private Island.  No trespassing. No fires.  No camping."  Aren't "No fires" and "No camping" redundant after "No trespassing"?

Matt put out his crab pot, and we settled in for a calm but chilly evening.  We were just three miles from the border, and for the first time in weeks I got cell service.  Just in time to follow the latest storm that is whacking Hawaii.

Matt didn't have any luck in the crab department, and this morning is chilly and rainy.  At least it is calm.  Today Thankful will head across the border and reenter the US.
