Log Booms Waiting

This afternoon there were large log booms with their tugs tied up offshore along Marine Avenue near the look-out. There are pylons anchored here to allow the tugs to tie-up for various reasons; to wait for calmer seas because of weather, or possibly to wait their turn at the booming grounds where they are to drop the tows. Today was rather a unique situation as 3 tugs were there; a fairly large one (Papa Tug), a middle size tug (Mama Tug) and a small tug (Baby Tug). The last picture is of the ferry about ready to leave for Comox.
This gave us an opportunity to try the new camera! Click on the pics to enlarge them.
