It may be a bit premature to mention it now, but I'm planning to build out a couple of small, no frills "camping cabins" for vacationers and bike travelers to use when they are visiting Orcas. The San Juan Islands are a beautiful place to visit on a summer tour, and I'm planning to stock some spares and bike tools should any guests need to make repairs while traveling. Basically a bed, hot shower, limited kitchen, small deck and fire ring. I will let the C&V crowd know more as I get these built. It would be nice to meet some of the forum's contributors if they are in the area.
