OK, so this may sound weird, but the last two weeks were all decided on this week’s reservation in Port Townsend. The dates that we could get booked at the Point Harbor Marina decided all the other; including my son’s visit and everything leading up to it. It has been...
Two hours away from Seattle – way out at the tip on a little island – is Fort Flagler State Park. This would be our home for the next few days to avoid the heat wave coming into the greater Seattle area. We chose this park partly because of it’s...
With my son in town for a visit, the three of us (and two dogs) piled into the van and took off for the mount – Mount Rainier to be exact. Although I have had a single day-trip into the park back in 2013, Kerri had not been to Mount...
Early on a Thursday morning we packed up and left our cozy but shady spot in Bruceport. By the end of that day we needed to arrive at a reserved RV Resort camp site, 3 hours away. You might be asking, why are they camping an hour out of Seattle...
We had the weekend and a few of the following weekdays to burn before arriving for our reservations at a RV Resort outside of Seattle. We were really just going to take it easy during these days after another run into town for supplies and laundry. It would be our...
Finally, after a long weekend, we broke free of the Astoria area. We didn’t make it far though, only a half-hour or so across the border into Washington. Actually, we were further North last week when we stayed at the Moose Lodge in Ocean Park, but we were content to...
We did not stay the entire week at the Moose lodge, opting to move mid week. We moved just a dozen miles South to visit with the Watsons again (not our first time this year) who were camped nearby. A meetup in town at the Shelburne – the oldest operating...
Kerri had this nice area of state forest picked out, not far from Astoria, for us to check for some boondocking. From satellite view, it really appeared that this place was created with dozens and dozens of individual pullouts that are synonymous with dispersed camping. Unfortunately, the entire area ended up...
Home this week has been the Minni Peterson Campground, right down the road from the Hoh Rainforest portion of the National Park. Not only is it free camping, it is quiet and mostly unused at this time of the year. A great spot to hop into the National Park for...
Cape Flattery is the northwesternmost point of the contiguous United States. It is in Clallam County, Washington on the Olympic Peninsula, where the Strait of Juan de Fuca joins the Pacific Ocean. Wikipedia Two years ago, when I was in this area, I chose not to come to Cape Flattery...
