Dyes Inlet and Poulsbo

We left Bainbridge for the Pennisula to spend some time at Dyes Inlet which we had not been to before. It is quite uninteresting. The town of Silverton didn't draw us in and we anchored out in the middle of the inlet enjoying the antics of the water skiers and speedboats and eventually a quiet and beautiful evening.

Next morning early (to take advantage of the current) we sped our way to Poulsbo. We anchored toward the end of the bay and dinghed over to the dock for a good stretch and walk about.


My dear late, late great great something.... the Viking in front of the Sons of Norway Hall.

We strolled by the SON Hall and drat -- they had a norwegian lunch that day open to all but closed 5 minutes before we arrived.
After our amble around town, we stopped at the new restaurant overlooking the marina (Latitudes) and had a quenching beer (Dad) and Iced Tea (me). It must have been close to 100 F -- a real hot one. The restaurant had something I've not seen before -- misters on the deck to cool the patrons. Quite effective. After our stop, I HAD to go to Sluys bakery to pick up my fix of lefse, down then to the used book store and back onboard for another salmon summer.

Evening begins over the pretty town of Poulsbo -- note the white church on the hill.


and to all a goodnight....
