We had a lazy morning, here in the fairgrounds campground. We used the time to do final planning for the remainder of our trip. We also communicated with other residents of the trailer park:
Apparently, several years ago the fair folks invited kids in the community to bring in their pets; many brought pet rabbits. As could be expected, some escaped into the woods and over the years have cross-pollinated with the local gray rabbits. The fairgrounds in particular, and the whole island in general, are now overrun with rabbits of all colors. Only the gray rabbits are indigenous; all the others are the results of the great pet escape…
At noon we put together a small picnic and walked about one mile down the road to the Whidbey Island Winery. We did some tasting, then bought a bottle of nice Sangiovece to enjoy with our picnic…
We returned to the Villa; I took a nap. At 5:00 David and Kim picked us up and we went to the Roaming Radish for dinner; this is a farm-to-table restaurant, and one of the best restaurants on the island, with very unique, chef-centric food.
We enjoyed a great meal with great friends… An enjoyable time was had by all…

How did the little critters fry up? Served with a Pinot or Barolo?

We deep fried them in heavy breading and served with country gravy. Pinot Gris from Nova Scotia…
