Sunday Aug 21 Woke up to no wind or rain. The forecast is so-so to iffy so I called out to Kevin and Beth "Let's go." On the water about 8:30 with some wind-waves in the harbour. The resident whale came out to say good-bye blowing just behind us and 20 m to our left, Noticeable swells when we got out to Hecate Straight but while always cautious things never got scary and even got better as the day went on. Each point that we passed, it seemed that things got calmer. Ikeda Inlet was amazingly calm and secluded. We stopped for lunch but did not spend much time there and very little exploring. Passed by the abandoned village of Jedway and went to the next inlet, Jedway Bay. By that time it was raining and we all wanted to camp asap. Couldn't find much but then went to the point separating the inner and outer bay. Found a calm beach with ruins from an old cannery. Camping in the trees and no driftwood but the rotten wood from the forest seems to burn just fine. No luck casting from the rocks. Quiet night and we are all to bed at dark - about 9:00 in the trees, 9:30 on the beach.
