8:05 and calm now -- less windy than earlier.

Whoa. I used to fish there (and swim :( !). I caught one salmon and 3 cod one day off the Point Defiance Boat House with my dad. That is unreal. There's a lot of scuba diving classes held right off the Ruston Way park. That's way too weird.

Oh yeah.... It is prime scuba area.... The Narrows is just around the corner, where the octopus watchers come from around the world to dive. And our beach house is just around the corner again, 5-6 miles away on Hale's Pass, on the mainland facing Fox Island.
