NWIS Sunset Dinner Cruise

Tonight was the Sunset Dinner Cruise that we donated to the Northwest Incident Support (NWIS) fundraiser. We have done this the last three years and we have met some wonderful people. This year it was won by one of our own! Dave Hyatt is a member of our support team for Camano Island and responds when the support rig is needed at a fire or other long term event. Dave brought his girlfriend Melanie, her parents Edie and Willard, and Melanie's daughter Mikayla  (and her friend Abby).


We had a great time getting to know Dave better as well as his friends. The girls were a delight and it was fun to have some young people on board this time. Melanie's parents are in town for Melanie's older daughter's wedding on September 1st so it worked out well for them to join us.

The weather was beautiful but the wind picked up so we had a lot of rough water. We took our usual route for guests - south along the shoreline to Mukilteo, across to Whidbey Island, north along that shoreline before cutting back across to Everett.  It calmed down a little when we got around the point at Mukilteo (and while we ate dinner) but then it got rough again. It was still fun, no one got sick, and they had a nice time. That is what we hoped for! Thank you for joining us. You made it a fun time for us, too!
