Aly left on the ferry yesterday evening to return south for school, but before she left, we all got our wish: a family day of kayaking, like the one Aly and I had previously (see Aly/Daddy Time).
On Friday, we gathered the two single kayaks and our double, loaded the extra passenger seat with good things, and kayaked north.

On Tuesday, Aly and I kayaked south from Mud Bay along Chilkat Peninsula.
We had nearly perfect conditions. Lynn Canal that calm day was flat and silky. Other than a few light rain showers, we had paddled under cool, cloudy skies. Knifing through the water in our new-to-us single kayaks (see We Need to Get Out More!) we covered a lot of territory in very little time, with very little effort.
