I know that we are all here for "the big day" and the celebration of a two people. Pete and I wouldn't be here without the love and support of you guys who are reading this blog. I am not worried about having every minute planned. For quite a few of you, though, this is your summer vacation.
PS: thank you Sarah, in Juneau, for this: "Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder tooday. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam..."

Saturday is the party!
Most people have housing figured out ? or at least have not asked us for much help. some are camping out. the three main families have all reserved hotel/houses/b&bs.
no set days for things to do, etc. but I have a list of things I "want" to do:
*Whale watch tour ($80 a person)
*Sailing (found the connection... it's a 26 footer that will hold 4-5 adults. Let's hope for good sailing weather!)
*kayaking, stand up paddle boarding and sail-yaking through my work: www.ptoutdoors.com
*biking
*Breakfast at the Blue Moose.
*open-water fishing or stream fishing (not sure on the prices, still working on connections)
*winery tours
*Olympic National Forest/ Hurricane Ridge
*the Hoh-Rainforest (3 hour drive there but well worth it!)
*watch the sunset on the Puget Sound/Admiralty Inlet
*hike at Fort Worden to explore naval history
*window shop? (not as important to me)
*share a beverage at the local brewery
*share a barbeque!
*tour any other places people are interested!
Leaving schedules that I know of so far:
Jen flies out at 11am and Dan leaves at 2pm.
Laura flies out on Sunday at 5:10pm
Verna and Jay leave Monday 10:45am on Delta 2614.
