35 Minute Slice

I grabbed a camera and took a few pictures on Saturday . . these are a few of the things I saw in 35 minutes - here comes Goldfish to join me for lunch . . .

 It was Mexican day in the galley - doesn't Randy have the cutest kids??

 We walked out of the galley and waved at co-workers working on the condenser re-piping project . . . .

 Then we walked down to the dock to see how the crab off-load was going.  You can see it was a gorgeous day in Unalaska/Dutch Harbor!

 Usually whenever I go check out a crab offload I have Jason hold one up, but he was just looking too relaxed in the sun . . .

 F/V North Sea is a big gal with wide decks and lots of freeboard (the amount of space between the waterline and the main deck).

 My co-workers's Dad was operating the off-loading crane . . .

 I'm thinking the crew must have a pretty well protected deck to work on with the hull design.

 After lunch at the galley and a walk on the dock we headed home to walk Chico and relax for a bit before returning to work.  At the base of the driveway was one of "our" eagles surveying the valley (there is a mated pair that winters in the immediate vicinity, usually visible most times of day).  The mate was up on a lamp post and loudly protested my taking a picture of his sweetheart . . . .

And of course our poor starving handicapped Paw Paw, who happens to somehow have the plumpest body and most luxurious coat on the island despite having a bum leg, was hanging out in the front yard.

No deep thoughts, just a slice of my Saturday . . . cheers everyone!
