Deception Pass Tours

The tenure of US Coast Guard–certified Captain Brett as captain of the Island Whaler began as a dream. In the course of nine months, he had a recurring dream about an unusual flatbed boat, which replaced his normal dreams about beating up Napoleon with Horatio Hornblower. More than a year after the visions stopped, Brett discovered his fantasy boat sitting in a parking lot in Anacortes. He now owns that boat and pilots the open-topped Island Whaler through picturesque waters to view the multitudinous wildlife found in and around Deception Pass.

The open deck and low-slung cabin of the seafaring sloop grants easy, panoramic views of the steep, rocky landscape. Captain Brett chimes in against the breeze with educational details about the pass' historical significance, structures, and ecology. Throughout the tours, spritely fauna with unevolved senses of stage fright perform lively, natural ballets as visitors potentially lock eyes with bald eagles, seals, porpoises, gray whales, and Pacific-Northwest giant squid.

The Groupon Guide to: Writing a Country Song

Whether it's blasting out the open windows of a flatbed Ford truck or in the locker room of a professional basketball team, country music tells the stories that warm our hearts. Here are some ideas for the content of your next country tune:

  • Suggestions for how to be a stronger man—emotionally.

  • An old woman sits on her porch looking back at her life and realizes she didn't spend enough time eating hot dogs or drinking lemonade.

  • Driving an old car down a good road.

  • A young boy plans to wear the same large hat he remembers his father wearing as he walked out the door.

  • A young girl falls in love with the ghost of a soldier who is living in a tree in her front yard.

  • A man warns his daughter not to grow up at all, ever, seriously—I mean it.

What genre of music is best for imparting wisdom to your daughter?
