From One Island to Another

fhl-mapThe question was raised, if one lives in paradise, where does one go on vacation?  The answer to that is quite easy!  One goes to Friday Harbor on San Juan Island in Washington state!  I shall be flying out on Saturday evening — our own dear Thom is taking me to the airport.  For a peek at where I am going — and where Amoeba already is — check out the Friday Harbor webcam.

Some of you will remember Amoeba and I began our lives together just two years ago at FHL.  Here are the links to a few posts from that time — check them out for photos and fun (if nothing else it will make you really appreciate my new camera!):

  2. Thom says:

    WOOT…bet you are getting so excited. Only I thought it was Sunday;

    She: “Feel like taking me to the airport Sunday, June 20th about 6:30ish? I promise not to leave my laptop home. (I don’t have one!)”

    He: “ROFLMAO…certainly. Bet you are anxious to go”

    4 Days later

    She: “Thom,

    I just read your comment on Amoeba’s post. My plane leaves SATURDAY night. If I said Sunday I humbly apologize and blame it on my illness. Can you still take me Saturday at 6:30, or are you otherwise engaged?

    C.”

    He: “Ooops…it could have been me as well…Certainly I can take you…”

    She: “Whew! Thank you! ”

    Have a wonderful time though I’m not sure that you should trust Thom with getting you to the airport. How familiar is he with the roads around there? LOL :D

    Indeed…. Pooooooor you! Just moving on to Paradise – the Flip Side… I just don’t know how you’re going to handle all that… beauty… in life. *sigh*

      Melli — Yep — the camera is all revved up and ready to go! I have a two gig card and I just bought a card reader (since I can’t very well take my printer with me to FHL) and I hope to be posting some awesome pics!

    • Quilly says:

      Melli — this year I hope to get a decent photo of the fox! I sop hope it comes back!

      Susan — stay tuned then, because I’ll have lots of photos! You can look at them and pretend you’re visiting!

  14. Carletta says:

    Anyway, I’ll repeat what I thought I said – have fun on/off the mainland!!
    Take Care.

      Carletta — You left it on the wrong post — but I got it just the same! I’ll be sharing my fun on my blog, so don’t go away!

  15. amberstar says:

    That is a really, really beautiful place. I could dig me some time at that Rosario resort!
    Hope you both have a wonderful time and get some needed rest…mental and physica. :)

    • Quilly says:

      Rosario Resort is on Orcas Island rather than San Juan Island, where we will be, but the two islands are only a short boat ride apart.

  16. Cindy says:

    I hope you have the most wonderful time ever!

    I’m late. Again. *breathless*
    Have a great time! Paradise from paradise. Hmm.
    Is a 2 gig card enough I wonder? I filled the 2 gig and half the 4 gig! But then, I am trigger happy. And not used to Paradise. Like some I could mention.

    Make sure you take plenty of pics though.

    Thumbelina’s last blog post..And on the Third Day…

    Sounds romantic. Hope you have a very safe trip and a fun one too!
