I was on Cap Sante Friday evening for a view of the summer concert at Seafarers’ when I noticed this biplane doing a few turns over the shoreline. Then it came our way for a closer look before disappearing around the corner over the Guemes Channel. Open cockpit!
How can anyone enjoying a summer view of Mt. Baker and bays pass on the opportunity for a photograph? This couple on Fidalgo Island shoreline at Cap Sante boasted “his and hers” cameras. Fidalgo Bay merges with Padilla Bay in the distance.
It was a beautiful “Chamber of Commerce” weekend in Anacortes with two blue-sky days for the annual Waterfront Festival at Cap Sante Marina in downtown Anacortes. Kudos to all, including event host Anacortes Chamber of Commerce, the Port of Anacortes and sponsors including HF Sinclair Refinery.
