North Fingers Inlet, GBNP to Hoonah, Icy Strait – June 9

Hoonah

A slow easy start this morning including, at Barrie’s request, a Larry breakfast.  We watch the shoreline this morning for  bear activity but see nothing more.  Lots of clouds this morning and occasional light rain.  We contemplated heading back into Bartlett Bay to take on water and top off with fuel for our trip home but decided that we would head straight to Hoonah. 

We are anxious to get into range of cell service and catch up on phone messages and email.  Hoonah also provides a chance to pick up a few fresh groceries – I am thinking that a salad would taste pretty good! A quick stop at the grocery store and then to the library to catch up on email.  We have been completely out of touch with the world for a week.  

I call Floyd and Marj to let them know that we are passing through Hoonah on our way south but they already know we are here!  I was fairly certain that Floyd had passed us coming into the harbor and I was right.  Beyond that, Floyd and Marj can see our boat on the dock from their back deck.
