A neighbor has been working on this boat in the backyard
While the Port of Port Townsend has a commercial boat/ship repair yard by the Boat Haven, there are a number of boats sitting on jacks in backyards throughout the county. Most spend years on land before they get back in the water, if they ever do. This boat looks to be in pretty good shape and receives attention. Many others simply sit and rot.

The perfect place to be on a wet, blustery day, the library
Port Townsend Library has the highest use per capita in Washington State. That’s a real credit to the city. However, it also means that the city library is often crowded and new books fly off the shelves. It’s often more comfortable to spend time at the Jefferson Country Library in Port Hadlock. I don’t get there that often, but when I need to go out to the county, I try to include a stop.
The two libraries share inventory, allowing us to request a book through either location or online for pickup at either.
