May 30- We awoke to rain and fog this morning. A couple of boats have left the marina but most of us are hold up in our boats waiting for it to let up a little. We are planning to go to a local museum on Solomon's Island today as we are leaving in the morning. It is Bill's birthday today so we are going to take him to lunch somewhere and celebrate. After lunch we went to the museum and were quite surprised at how well it was done. They had a section on some of the local fish in the area and even had a section with otters who were fun to watch. They had a real lighthouse that was saved from demolition which a local woman had cut from its position and towed into their harbour, restored and opened to the public. It had quite a bit of room inside, but I can't imagine living 3 miles out in the bay with children and the only way into the harbour was by row boat - no thanks!
