We awoke to broken skies with occasional sun breaking through, and after breakfast headed for Tahsis at the end of Tahsis Inlet Via a passage through the Spanish Pilot Group. We had a mixture of sunshine and showers along the 20-mile trip, and saw a bear foraging on the beach across the inlet from Santiago Creek.
It was a joy to find Westview Marina at Tahsis, such a nice, clean, and well managed marina. It is an outstanding facility with accommodating management.
After registering, and having a Mexican lunch at the Marina Cantina, we took advantage of the sunny weather and walked the .8 of a mile into the community of Tahsis and visited the small store.

Beautiful sunny blue skies greeted the day, but more foul southeast weather forecast to come in. We took the opportunity of sunshine to dry out the boat, hanging the sleeping bags out to air, and pulling out and drying out stuff that was stashed in all the nooks and crannies that has been collecting moisture over these last few rainy weeks. At the time of this writing, all is dry and warm and we are happy about that. The sky is threatening again. So we feel smug that we got drying out done in the knick of time.
The marina allowed us to use their courtesy car to get our propane bottle refilled in town at the hardware and home center. The guy that is licensed to fill propane tanks? went home sick and there wasn’t anyone available to do the job until the owner, also the school principal got off work late in the day. We will go back at 9:00 Am tomorrow morning to see if we will have propane in our back up bottle.. Much to do about nothing!
