Hi Dave,

Yep, the ship is still here. I kinda like the corporate name on it "Horizon Lines".

I haven't done the mouth of the Nooksack in a few years because I heard it was choked with wood. We usually run from Everson to Ferndale when it is cresting, you can see over the levees for more scenery. Did three days around Fidalgo last week, and the Skagit Eagle float before that. Soon be going to Hobuk or Crescent Beach to test both the Grand Illusion and the camera in surf.

You are missing a warm winter back here. Are you paddling as much as your building these days?

Best,

Reg
