Fort Flagler State Park

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 location to the water, but also because of our following week’s plans to re-visit one of our favorite places in the USA; Port Towsend.

Pulling in on a Tuesday afternoon and having to leave by Friday afternoon didn’t leave a lot of time to do much outside of our normal work hours. Though we did take a nice little hike the first day, we never got back out on the trail in the remaining days. The area was still smoked in heavily by all the fires in California and Canada, massively altering the sunsets. We were lucky enough to have a campsite facing to the West and with nothing impeding our view to the bay.

With it being the greater Pacific North West (lots of trees in every place to camp) we were struggling with our power situation, going as far as to have to move Big Blue out to the beach for a day of work – and sun. That wasn’t bad at all I must admit.
