Aug. 7. Sun.

"Hoyt's Channel."
It was a beautiful morning. I woke up at six and couldn't stand it so got up so quietly that even Mrs. Davis didn't hear me, and slipped out and took the steel boat and went for a row. It was quite still and oh, so beautiful! A sort of a Japanese morning. First I cruised around Bonaparte Bay and took a snap from the "offing" of the sister islands. Then "Doyouasyoupleze" hove it in sight on the port bow all quiet and still and early - morning - looking. I rowed back over the old familiar moonlight path the Skipper and I knew so well last year, and out thro' the little passage they have named for Mrs. Hoyt
. At the range light I got our big pail of milk and saw a little one too, so took it along for Mrs. Howson. There stole around the nose of Clare and what ho! Mandalay ahoy - oh, lovlier than ever. I could have hugged it. Found a fine landing place on the western end and explored almost every inch - taking several pictures - but I might have taken a dozen. There were lovely views enough. I like it better everytime I go there. Wonder if I'll ever - &c. &c. &c. (Castles in the air)!
