These two women were among a couple of dozen folks gathered at Cap Sante viewpoint Sunday afternoon to watch the departure of tall ships Lady Washington and Hawaiian Chieftain from Cap Sante Boat Haven. Each ship was “crewed” by people who paid for the privilege of a three-hour adventure including a faux ships’ battle.
About Steve Berentson
A fourth generation Skagit County native who was moved kicking and screaming from this island community in 1960. I finally reclaimed an Anacortes address in 1980, and I have been in constant celebration of my return since that time. Many of us who call Anacortes home love Fidalgo Island for its natural assets: among them are rugged beaches, pristine lakes, thousands of acres of forestland and some awesome views of the Skagit Valley and surrounding islands. Another element of my love affair with this community is its people, both natives and immigrants. They will “star” in many of my journal entries.
