2018.08.31-Washington State Part Deux

Apparently there is a maximum size for these blog posts, we didn't know, but we still have a few more things to share.  So we hope you stayed with us.  This is still about Washington state, even though we're posting this from Billings Montana.  More about that later.

This is a hazy smokey morning reflection on Port Townsend Bay as we make a ferry crossing to Whidbey Island.

An interesting whale totem at the harbor in Coupeville on Whidbey Island.  We didn't see whales while there.

This is the bridge at Deception Pass on the far north end of Whidbey Island.  There are vehicle lanes and walking lanes.  Cars and trucks pass by quickly and closely, hold on.

We saw a number of  Manzanita trees on Whidbey Island and throughout Washington.  They are striking red color in a sea of evergreens.

This is the Admiralty Head lighthouse in Fort Casey State Park on Whidbey Island.

For those who think we never see people on our trips.  Dinner on Whidbey Island with friends from Boerne Texas.  How lucky is this guy!

This is a Dahlia from the gardens on the grounds of the Washington State Capitol.

This red sunflower is also from the gardens on the Washington State Capitol.  If you are in Olympia this is a beautiful place;  we had an enjoyable tour of the capitol building and the grounds.

Port Townsend sunset.

That does it for this post of Washington state.  We wanted to get this out before it got too far from our memories, it seems they are fleeting these days.  As mentioned we are in Billings Montana as this is posted on our way to Madison Wisconsin.  It's going to be a fairly quick trip and we don't plan to do much along the way other than drive and rest.  We'll be in Madison for a little over 2 weeks doing maintenance on the rig and toad.  In addition while there Jerry will make a quick trip (by air) back to San Antonio to renew a drivers license.  The story's not worth it, just red tape and bureaucracy, but after that we'll be heading to the east coast enjoying family and many good friends, wintering in Florida and the Alabama Gulf coast.  That should be fun and we'll have lots to share.  Thanks for following us.
