Tom,
Glad to hear your in the San Juans. We had a great time there and hope you have a chance to drop the hook in a few places. We really like Mud Bay, south end of Lopez, had it to ourselves for 3 days. If you go over to Shaw Island and park at Blind Bay, be sure to go up to the ferry dock and see Steve. He owns the store and is a real story teller. The wife liked the passerby bench just down the road from his store.
Watch close if your going through Wasp passage, this is where we saw a pod of Orcas and saw them again on Turn point off of Stuart Island a week later. If you anchor in Reid Harbor, be sure to hike out to turn point, it's a long walk over mostly dirt roads, but the view is to die for.
Enjoy your trip and hope we meet up, we are in Vancouver until Monday then we meander north at a rather slow pace, should be at Chatterbox Falls around the 15th or so.
