Wi-Fi On The Water!
Right now, I'm about 300 yards out into Puget Sound on the Edmonds-Kingston Ferry but have high speed internet access for free. How cool! I think I remember reading something about internet access on the ferries but have only used a ferry once in the six years I've been here. I opened up my MacBook Pro and saw an available wireless network. How Cool!!

You took your macbook pro with you while hiking and camping on the coast?
Have fun out there!!

Paula, yeah, I think they are supposed to charge but for some reason, their captive proxy was not operating and the the AP was wide open. If I did hack it, I would have paid (’cause that’s just how I roll :), but that wasn’t necessary today.
