It was First Friday Art Walk in downtown Anacortes. Katherine Khile of Scott Milo Gallery combined the monthly event with a celebration of 25 years in business. Honored guests included a number of artist friends including Jennifer Bowman and Lewis Jones. Art lovers took advantage of a break in weather, moving up and down Commercial Avenue to see art on display.

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.
