A Jones Island getaway, again

Despite the laundry list of reasons to stay home during the holidays, including all the prep and cleaning and logistics of the season, we knew we needed to get away to wilderness even more than we needed to be one step ahead of the to do list.

And so it was. We journeyed up to Friday Harbor on Friday night and found Aeolus safe but cold in her berth. I had left a circulation fan running but not an actual heater, so the boat was a frigid 43 degrees or so when we got there at 0 dark hundred. Never mind, our sleeping bags were warm and we were so very happy to be back on Aeolus that the trip already felt worthwhile!
