In our three summers in Wrangell, I've never seen rain fall like this for such an extended period of time - especially given the incredible weather that we've experienced so far this summer.
Bob gave us a ton of sockeye and we knew that now was the time to get it vacuum sealed. I'd filled our cooler with ice from the cannery near Heritage harbor - it's a brine ice that is far below 32 degrees. Janet and I spent several hours filleting and sealing under the potluck tent out of the torrential diwnpour's reach.
As it was our day off, we decided to head to town to restock with food and water, throw in a load of laundry, and to hit the library. Heavy rain fell periodically throughout the day, with showers that were more reminiscent of a fire hose than a bathroom.
We had a dinner of king salmon and sacked out early.
I can't wait to 'see' some of that salmon back here in Colorado!
