    Leaving Astoria Oregon around the coast and to the Strait of Juan de Fuca on a friend's boat. He goes every year for the summer so I came along since I will have to bring the new boat around from the Puget Sound.

    Made it to Port Angeles. Twin 1500HP will get you there quick. I kinda like this not having a boat thing and using everyone else's 😂. Stayed with a friend on there 50 OA, used another friends dinghy to join the offshore dock party and now this trip.

    Went out this morning for our annual clam dig. Between the 6 of us we got 430 in less than 2 hours 😳.

    Looks interesting! Since I know nothing about clam digs - what's with dividing up your haul into those little piles? And the one big pile on the jacket? I also read never to pack them in ice because the fresh water kills them?

    We were just counting them up to split them between us. Nothing special about the big pile. If you want to eat them raw, you put them on ice to relax them, makes them easier to shuck them open.

    Steaming them now. Once they open on their own, they’re good to go. If any stay closed, they go in the garbage.

    Rough fathers day for this guy. I went over and checked on them (was on the jetski).. they were content and seemed okay. They said they'd be floating again at 1030pm, about 50 mins from now.

    This fair size trawler is anchored off the beach at Innisfil Beach Park on Lake Simcoe this morning. That's a hanging chair mounted on the boom. What a great place to watch a sunset from!

    That's a great idea for the boom.  Now, if you have a remote for it, just swivel yourself around to hang over the water.

    My lord, it looks like half the country is on fire, and your a big country. Was it a mild winter/ low snowfall? Why so dry?

    It's because the Canadians are so nice the fires have nothing to fear 😂

    Hey @Dream_Inn, are y'all down at Solomons? Someone from the marina posted that a bunch of Rinkers had taken over A dock. Figured you had to be the ringleader.
