On March 12, three WSA boats headed to Avalon. Honu, with Holly and Susan arrived in the afternoon, followed by Aurora, with commodore Kathy Fancher and Karen and Amelia on board, and later that evening Karma arrived with captain Cherie Moulin and Loryne and new member, Patty Rankin. This was a great time to go to Avalon as the moorings were plentiful, the flowers were blooming, the hills were green and there were NO crowds! Saturday morning, our friend Chris Todd, who lives on the island, took us on a great hike, pointing out the indigenous island plants and giving us spectacular views of the harbor. Everyone enjoyed the hike, especially Maggie and Ziggy Pickles!
That evening we rendezvoused at the historic casino theatre and were treated to live music from a pipe organ before the movie. The interior of the theatre is magical.
Sunday morning came too soon, (daylight saving) but it was a beautiful clear day with a crisp wind and we all had a fabulous sail home. We had a great time and will definitely make this an annual event!
