[jet city] Grand re-opening diary post: A visit to Caba Ridgely

To mark the last-day-before-Labor-Day, we celebrated with a truly special event: a get-together for food and festivating at the Whidbey Island home of Yojimbo and his bride, Lady K. Johnbai and O joined Otis and I for a ferry ride to this storied enclave, known previously only through legend and fable, the whispered half-memories of travelers and the ravings of blessed fools. The thrill of traveling to this vertiable El Dorado was matched only by the pleasure of spending an afternoon with K, a figure previously as elusive as a mermaid.

Seriously, we had a great time hanging out on The Rock, meeting neighbors, new friends, and old pals (hi, FarmerScott!), eating tasty treats, and relaxing in the sun (and the shade). Herewith, photographic proof!
