Busting Out

Sometimes you just have to get out there.
Cabin fever sets in and you say, "What the heck.  A little wind and rain and cold can't stop me".  And besides, that's what all those layers of fleece and Gortex are for, right?
 If your're going to be out in the weather, you might as well go where it makes it's strongest impact - out by the Sound.  In this case, the Des Moines Marina.
Oh, Bouy, it was chilly.
 But our feathered friends found it just ducky.
Our Sunday "outside" outing was brief, but refreshing.  And then we went in search of some antique shops to prowl for a while.

I am sitting here in 79 degree weather and just looked up Bellingham: 41 and rainy. Oh Buoy do I know what you mean about cabin fever. I don't have it right now, for some reason. :-)

It's been raining a lot lately here in Hawaii. Not good weather to venture out in.

You are brave souls. I'm sure it felt good to get out and move around a bit though.
