Baker from Cap Sante
Published April 11, 2012 / by Steve Berentson
Standing sentinel on Cap Sante, overlooking Fidalgo Bay, are iron posts that I am assuming were once laced with protective ropes or cables. Someone has laced a heavy cable through two of the posts on the east side of the Cap Sante viewing area … a cable that sweeps up and down forming an outline that is reminiscent of a mountain profile.
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.
