Dry, Dreamy, and Dance-Ready

Clear skies and a nearly 16-hour day mean golden hour stretches until 9:07pm tonight—grab your camera and a friend and chase that light. Live music kicks off at the Orcas Hotel at 4pm if you want to warm up with some tunes first, or swing by the Senior Center for art and needlework circles this afternoon. Mark your calendar for Market Day on the 25th (treats! treasures!) and get those San Juan County Fair entries registered while you're at it.
