Fishing and Saltspring

I have been trying to soak up every bit of summer I can, so when John asked if I wanted to go fishing last night, I said yes! It wasn't good for fishing (one little greenling which we just had for dinner and it was delicious) but it was such a warm beautiful night out there. Oh yes, I caught a starry flounder, but we threw it back because we don't like the taste very much. This morning I rode my bike to the ferry and over to Saltspring Island, to see Heather in the Gay Pride parade. Heather is not gay but the roller derby ladies wanted to show their support. I made it just in time to see them come down. Heather was busy but we had a quick lunch together. The bike ride was kind of brutal but I am glad I did it. Saltspring is a very hilly place and it took about 50 minues each way, even though it's only 14km from Fulford to Ganges. Getting to the ferry was another 30 minutes, going my fastest because I thought the ferry was 11:00 (turned out it was 11:30!). John kindly picked me up at the Thrifty's. It was about 3 hours return. Heather was surprised to see me. She looked great in her derby attire. She needs to made up her mind what she is going to do after September but we didn't talk about that.
