When the afternoon softened and the sun hit just right, Hops on the Rock found its rhythm—good music, great pours, easy laughter, and no rush at all.
Until next year, Hops on the Rock. 🍻

hi from Eastsound on Orcas Island. highlights so far: Zumba at Oddfellows Hall (https://lifeonorcasisland.com/i-love-zumba-with-alyson-stephens/), pinball with Tony at Tiltshift (https://tiltshiftorcas.com/pinball/), and field research for my forthcoming monograph "Breakfast Burritos of the San Juan Archipelago."

Last week I took my family on our first ever Airplane Camping trip for one night at KORS Orcas Island, WA.

While there, we visited the town of Eastsound for yummy ice cream, dinner, and morning coffee, pastries, and lunch.

Here is the trip report:

I took this photo. I'm rather fond of it.

#MountainLake in its July finery. #OrcasIsland #SilentSunday

#Anacortes/#SanJuanIslands route on 2-boat service for rest of night. We will not take any vehicle reservation holders after 7p & no longer taking new standby vehicles out of #Anacortes, #OrcasIsland & #FridayHarbor to help those waiting at terminals get to their destinations.

Hey #OrcasIsland and #SanJuanIsland peeps: I'm trying to find someone to do some fairly straightforward exterior (attached to the garage) cabinet/shed making for me.

All my other options kindof just flaked.

Anyone recommendations? I can provide details as needed.

Thanks!

Umm, yeah, sure. 🙃

#Chelan likely hit the shoreline last night in Wasp Passage on #SanJuanIslands Interisland route w/4 passengers aboard. No one hurt. Boat returned to #OrcasIsland for initial assessment. Coast Guard approved vessel to go to #FridayHarbor, where it remains for further inspection.

#Chelan interisland sailing to #FridayHarbor has returned to #OrcasIsland due to a mechanical issue. No other vessels can dock at Orcas until boat is cleared to sail by the Coast Guard.

Pretty psyched about this. @jeff created a bot that publishes tweets from our local ferry system on Mastodon. We’re a step closer to our locally-focused Mastodon instance being a real world community resource. Follow here: @wsf_updates
