Hey Everyone!!!
Thursday morning we planned on traveling back home, we had a good week visiting Mark and Debbie but were ready to go home. We were not in a rush to leave so that morning I joined Kefford and Mark on their morning walk and we walked around Winchester Bay for a couple of hours.
On Wednesday when I got up Kefford and Mark had left on a walk so I went on a walk by myself, Rylee was still sleeping. I wanted to walk down to the beach and walk along the shore so I ventured off to go find the ocean.
I love the beach and I loved walking along the shore, there were a lot of broken shells but I did find one large shell completely intact. I forgot to take a picture of it but I did keep it and carry it will me for the rest of my walk. I found a heart shaped piece of driftwood that I did take a picture of. I love finding random hearts in nature.
After walking for a couple of hours I got a phone call from Kefford asking where I was, they were on there way to pick me up so I could go with them to watch the counting of the salmon.
The counting of the salmon was interesting but not a super big deal. They have tanks where the baby fish are living and they catch them in the net weigh them before putting them in a separate section to keep the counted and the uncounted separate. They total up the weight when they are done and then from that they are able to know how many they have. We watched that for a little bit and then we fed some of the fish in their tanks and then we went inside to see where they breed the fish and grow them from the egg stage. We did not spend too long at the fish hatchery which was good. On our way back from the hatchery we saw a diner that was advertising pie. I did not have breakfast and it was lunchtime and pie sounded so good so when we got back to the house I asked if anyone wanted to go get some pie. Everyone was game so we went and got lunch and pie at the diner. I got a peanut butter chocolate pie and it was good but nothing that I am going to be dreaming about going back and eating.
On Tuesday Mark took us fishing. I wasn't keen on going but I thought I should give it a try and go with my family. In hind sight I should have just stayed back because I got so sick on that boat ride. I have been on boats before and have never gotten sick but this boat ride was an entire different boat ride. Mark drove us about 12 miles out into the open sea and I don't know how fast we were going but it was choppy and bumpy and I very quickly started feeling nauseous. I tried to hang in there though and once we arrived I took pictures and did my best to ignore the sickness in my stomach but it was not going away and it was getting worse. I think a combination of the boat rocking and watching Marks friend Doug cut his fish off the line and seeing the bloody knife and the bulgy eyes of the fish was a lethal combination for me.
