Port of Anacortes 2020-2021 capital improvements include demolition and replacement of “A” Dock at Cap Sante Marina. This image was taken Sunday, Nov. 1, so it is clear the project is under way. Unlike street and highway projects that typically take place in spring and summer, in-water projects take place during a winter “fish window” to protect salmon and other marine life. This area, known as the commercial dock, is next door to a “T” Dock utilized for activities including loading/unloading of commercial vessels.
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.
