Bitches Blog: DeCourcy Island

One of the Canadian Gulf Islands, DeCourcy has a nice little anchorage called Pirates Cove. We've been here a few times before. There is a treasure chest, symbolic of the Cove's wilder past, that boaters have enjoyed decorating with costume jewlery. However when we arrived this time, the treasure chest was gone--and know one could tell us why. It was quite a dissapointment as we had saved up our bangles and baubles for the past two years! Ken brought the bag of trinklets to the Island and instead displayed them on the plaque commemorating the island as a Marine Park. Perhaps we started a new ritual!

If you look closely at the map, you'll see Pylades Channel towards the top. DeCourcy is a tiny unlabeled island near there.
