Anacortes

We have a beautiful sunny day today. I saw in the paper that there was going to be a “fly-in” at the Anacortes Airport today. It is a bit chilly by the water but the airport is located in a little valley here on the island. It was in the 70’s without much of a breeze there. It is mostly a general aviation airport but it is also a hub for San Juan Airlines. San Juan Airlines uses small 4-6 passenger planes to get around the islands up here (as opposed to via boat or ferry). Merlin had a wonderful time checking in with the other dogs who attended. There were several fly-overs by acrobatic aircraft. It was beautiful to see. Many of the hangar doors were open and we got to see some of the many toys these aviators have acquired. There were beautiful model aircraft as well as vintage cars.
