Blue Mist at ...
...

... low tide just before sunrise on ...
...

... our final full day at Hermit Island.
...

The need for an early morning coffee soon moved me out towards the Phippsburg general store. This was the low-tide look towards Hermit Island ...
...

... from just beside the now deserted Lobster House.
...

It's not yet 7 a.m. but the lads are already in full session in the Smoking Lounge at the General Store in Phippsburg!
...

It's another lovely morning as we get set to leave for our daily 8 a.m. breakfast meeting ...
...

... with Chuck and Ginny at Percy's.
...

Ginny orders her breakfast.
...

No briefing this morning as most of us plan to do a leisurely haul-out and get the boats ready for the long trip home.
...

David, Krystal and Lisa Nelson use this opportunity to confirm that their little electric trolling motor will move their Wayfarer.
...

Mission accomplished.
...

SHADES, Al and Julia after haul-out

Once SHADES was all packed away, the Jordans invited us to explore North Creek Farms as a possible lunch destination for which they had spotted a signpost at the junction of Rte 216 and 217.
...

And a lovely, interesting place it ...
...

... turned out to be.
...

All kinds of interesting stuff to admire before we ...
...

... sat down to lunch.
