Kim brought her Zissou hat (Life Aquatic). Erin’s a relatively new live-aboard at Shilshole on K-dock. John (of Washington Live-Aboards Association) paddled over as well (and clued us into the Wed BBQ on L-dock).

We ended up at Anthony’s Homeport (next to Rays) for the free buffet they have on Wed nights.

All pictures up here.

Gina as Zissou (she hasn’t even seen the movie though – gotta work on Gina’s movie knowledge… I mean – hasn’t seen Life Aquatic!?!?!)

Zissou (Fisher)
Fisher as Zissou… I think he’s closer to the spirit of Zissou then he knows or admits.

Les and Jane (K dock), K**, Fisher (Q dock) and Gina (no dock, but can be found on K dock most days). Beer, wine, cheese, ice cream, pretty nice sunset, fun in the sailing dinghy… I’m still not sure why everyone isn’t living on boats.

K** and the poodle (yes, there was a poodle on my boat… never thought I’d say that).

B-17

A B-17 was flying over… one guy said you can get $300 rides on it while it’s in town (a few weeks)
