Dear Friends of Doe Bay, |

| Doe Bay Welcomes Sarah Palin & the Tea Party At Doe Bay, we love a party, so we are thrilled to announce that Sarah Palin has agreed to address her loyal fans at The Tea Party Convention slated for the 4th of July weekend at Doe Bay Resort & Retreat. Through a spokesman, Mrs. Palin said that, "Doe Bay is not really on the world map yet, but I am willing to come here because, if I win next time, I will be living in Washington for 4 years." Her announcement included the first indication that she is considering another run for higher office. When asked directly about it, she handed this reporter the photo below and said, "If I really want to be the leader of the free world, I know that I need to sharpen my international credentials and being at Doe Bay accomplishes that. When Senator John McCain and I campaigned at Doe Bay last year, the senator pointed out to me that you can see Canada from Doe Bay." Lip readers immediately began blogging that Governor Palin's husband Todd was whispering, "I think that is actually Blakely Island, honey."
Candidate McCain pointing South to Canada! *********************************************** Easter Week at Doe Bay - April 1st to April 9th Kids stay and EAT free No Minimum Stay required - Call NOW
Won't it be great to have a little extra time with your kids over Spring Break. You could take your kids to see Avatar again and then spend way too much eating factory produced food at a restaurant that has Factory in the name. Or you could come up to Doe Bay and teach them that we used to not have cell phones or 250 channels on cable. We have several special events planned for families along with the regular options of spa visits, massage and yoga. We will have kid-friendly yoga classes, special cafe meals. Call Jami (360) 376-2291 at the Front desk for details, options and reservations. ********************************************* Labor Dispute Settled Doe Bay Staff Replaced in Late Night Coup
The New Regime Takes Over Doe Bay! Next week, in a move reminiscent of the Ronald "the Gipper" Reagan's gutsy firing of all the air traffic controllers, Doe Bay Ownership plans to settle years of labor strife by a surprise tactic of summarily dismissing the entire staff and replacing them with employees who look shockingly like the 2004 staff. The more things change, the more they stay the same! ********************************************* Firesign Theater at Doe Bay??? This is no April Fool's Story (although much of this newsletter is.) David Ossman will be here for one show only on Friday night, April 9th. It will sell out. If you would like to make a reservation, please call us at 360-376-8059.
If you would like to make a reservation, please call us at 360-376-8059. NOW! ********************************************* Music at Doe Bay
A young Paul McCartney plays his first gig at Doe Bay in 1959. His mother, reflecting the prevalent prejudices against the handicapped in those days, forced young Paul to play right handed. He later switched, acknowledging his left-handedness and went on to play professional cricket for the Liverpool Cricket Club. (No relation to Bass player for the Beatles.) ********************************************* DON'T MISS THESE SHOWS at the DOE BAY CAFE Shows start at 7:30PM - Call the Cafe for RESERVATIONS (360) 376-8059.

Doe Bay is attempting to use heavy equipment and robots to mechanize all aspects of organic farming and eliminate having to deal with gardeners. Until that program is complete, Doe Bay will continue to host WWOOF volunteers all year round to work in our organic garden, learning organic gardening techniques and to participate in our Seed-to-Table program where what we grow in the Doe Bay Garden is what we all eat in the Doe Bay Cafe. Our WWOOF guests live at Doe Bay and get free room and board in exchange for their efforts. The program has been a huge success. If you are interested, please write to Heather, the Doe Bay Garden Manager. ********************************************* Thank you for reading my ramblings. In case you didn't notice, the date of this Newsletter is April 1, 2010, as in April Fool's Day. Believe what you want of what you read here. The rest of the newsletter, is more or less true. When you come to Doe Bay, ask if Joe is around and please introduce yourself to me.

If you are a regular reader, you probably know the story of this photo and the Vishnayu family of snake charmers who showed up at Doe Bay one recent weekend.

How to get to Doe Bay |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Getting to Doe Bay can be half the fun. Consider the foot ferry from Island Express, directly to our beach. Call us for details. Another option is flying on Kenmore Air out of Seattle. The ferry
schedule includes fewer sailings in the Winter and Spring, but
they are almost never full, so come on up! |
