Thacher Island

 Thacher I left Granite Pier at 7:30 with docents (Karen Maslow & Paula); crew (Krause, Ives, Lovasco) and Leslie’s 2 friends.  Three boats of visitors followed with 17 total visitors.  Syd checked the honey hives and took honey frames back to Rockport. Throughout the day we had other visitors.  In the afternoon, we found various tasks.  Leslie had her chain saw sent over and finished up the larger branches on the trail leading to the Whistle House.  Standing on the tram roundtable, one can now see water at both ends.  Julie painted another sanded ramp board. Scotty weed whacked under the apple tree by Ann’s Way and to the north of the South Tower.  Julie sprayed poison ivy again at the same spots, plants are turning brown.  Julie picked cucumbers, peppers and green beans from the garden which we enjoyed for dinner.
