Ketchikan is known for rain and it didn’t disappoint. In its
driest month, Ketchikan gets more rain than Seattle gets in its wettest month.
Some 150+ inches per year. Soon after arrival the rain arrived, too, and it
didn’t really let up the whole time I was in town.
After 19 days of moving every day, the few rest days in Ketchikan
were welcome. I caught up on email, laundry, a few boat projects, and grocery
shopping.
I also used the days to talk with each of the flotilla
participants about their travels onward from Ketchikan. Several are turning
right around and heading for home, three are wondering around SE Alaska for at
least a few weeks, and one is unsure.
Mark, my employer, and his two sons arrived on Sunday (June
22nd). They’re continuing north and we planned on buddy boating as
far as Petersburg. This will give us time to finalize our plans for southbound
travel, so we can avoid visiting the same places.
