First
wildlife sighting driving to Fort Worden State Park campground. |
Here's
the Port Townsend Post Office, completed in 1893. We enjoyed walking
about town on a glorious sunny day, one of the few lately! |
Loading up, on & off is very efficient! We were near the front of the line and seemed to be underway soon after we parked. |
|
We
camped in Deception Pass State Park, hiked from North Beach, Goose Rock
trail, over the bridge and back. |
Good
views from the bridge! That's Mt. Baker in the distance. |
Sunset
at Fort Wordon SP in Townsend, Washington. |
|
Townsend
has lots of restored buildings built in the late 1800s. Beautiful flowers
everywhere. |
Here comes our ride, MV Salish. $16.30 to take us & the van to Coupeville, about 1/2 hr ride. Much more pleasant & cheaper than driving back down towards Seattle & dealing with the traffic!! |
The
Deception Pass bridge built in 1935 actually spans two narrow channels
from Whidbey Island to Fidalgo Island. Used to be a ferry crossing thru
very turbulent waters. |
