One of the really great things about the delta is that July is usually better than June, August is usually better than July and so on, but this year we all kept commenting over and over about the incredible weather, water temperature etc - the summer just kept getting better. The only thing we had to deal with was the overgrowth of hyacinths and other greenery this year, but with it came all the other wonderful birds and fish. This year's evening symphony added an owl and a bullfrog.

Then there was the fishing ~ ~ Brian really went at it this summer and was rewarded with some nice fish. We don't eat the fish, We "photo & release".

| Definitely impressive !!! |
But the Delta herself stole the show this summer with breathtaking sunsets and peaceful afternoons.
Summer ended for most folks with the Harbor party in September. Food, music and a time for everyone to get together before the boats started leaving.

Before the last boats packed up, this years Fig Island project was the deck renovation. These photos came from everyone (thanks to all who took them). The pix are of the men that worked that weekend but the deck was a gift to Bonnie and Chuck from all of the Figlets.

We left the island last month and did not make the long trek back to the bay. We are at Riverboat and hope to make it to the boat at least once a month to enjoy the other seasons the Delta has to show us.
