A Saturday in July spent in a car with Johnny the Boot




Johnny the Boot needed company. He had to go to his incredibly beautiful cabin on Orcas Island to fix the WiFi. His cabin is so beautiful he and his (lovely) wife Lorraine need to rent it out in order to own it. They spend about six weekend up there a year. The rest of the time people rent it and complain about weird things like the cutlery being inferior to the surroundings and the WiFi being substandard. I remember my Uncle Mal's cabin as being plywood and 2x4s and we loved it and it's mismatched cutlery. The trip up was beautiful on the ferry.(we didn't get on the boat until 4:00PM, returned on the 10:50PM making this the fastest trrip to the San Juan Islands ever) Tame deer were in his yard. It was idyllic and now because of economics, unattainable even for the owners.
