What an awesome place, Telegraph Cove is. Even with no phone service with Verizon, no tv and terrible internet. The village was a logging and saltery hub when it was started and the owners are working so hard to maintain the integrity of the place. They are constantly working on the buildings, which most of them are rentals for overnight guests. So quaint. Several restaurants, museum, store and a hub for whale watching, bear watching and sport fishing charters. Really rustic.
Patti is away on business until the week-end so Marty and I went out in their boat to try our luck for salmon. Bad luck. We fished in the fog but caught nothing. She took me around part of Johnstone Straight and showed me so many of the sights. Caught 2 black cod for supper - boy, were they good - and she showed me how she feeds the bald eagles. She catches non-sporting fish, whistles at the eagles up in the tree tops on the shore or on one of the islands and throws the fish out just a little ways from the boat. I put the shutter speed on really fast and boy, did I catch some shots of the eagle swooping down on it's prey. Hopefully, when Patti gets back, she can show me how her computer works and I can share some photos.
This coming Monday, I am going out on a fishing charter for halibut and salmon and what ever else wants my bait. Tomorrow, I might get to go out again with a guide that just wants company. Hope, hope.
The weather is still awesome - so nice and cool. Don't give up on me on this blog. I'm still working on getting more stuff out. I really thought Verizon would work up here. I was told today that they are coming but that doesn't do any good now.
