"I remember when at Priest Lake ..... " Mona Bishop would sit out front of Bishop’s Marina with her hands on her knees wearing a straw hat with a flowered hat band.
The Tyee and the Ridley were moored at Bishop’s Marina then and if you dared, you could climb up on them. I can still hear Mona yelling, “Get off that boat!” Just after you entered the marina, there was a ramp down to the floating dock where the slips were. When you ran down that ramp it would bounce like trampoline, but if you did, you’d hear Mona yell, “No runnin’ on the dock!” She was a great gal and Russ was a great guy. I think of them still whenever I visit Coolin.
