The codfish fleet, last of the working sail powered vessels, wintered over in Poulsbo at the end of the locked Union Oil dock. The father of mother’s best friend was the manager, and Grandma Young took me to tour the schooners when I was five. A single feature of the ship enthused me to become a cod fisherman. There was a soft serve ice cream machine onboard! The Olympic Mountains provided a spectacular background.

Paved today, this used to be a gravel track through the desert. Fifteen miles of hard bicycle riding to get to the Baker Airport where, if I were lucky, the afternoon United Airlines DC-3 would fly right over my observation point in the grass at the end of the runway.
