Hurricane Ridge

Yesterday we went into the Olympic National Park with our friends Steve and Veronica Spencer. We met the Spencers while in San Carlos, Mexico, while on spring break in 2004. Steve spent a lot of time in this area as a young man and had lots of memories to relay to us.

When the clouds parted, the view of Hurricane Ridge was spectacular. We enjoyed a mile long walk along the ridge.

We are leaving the KOA in Port Angeles and moving about 30 miles west to a county park. On the way we will stop in Port Angeles and make reservations for the ferry to Victoria, British Columbia. We'll spend two days there seeing the sights, especially the Butchart Gardens of which we've heard so much from others.

After Victoria, we'll head farther west and visit Neah Bay, and the western coast of Washington. That is about as far as we've planned so far but we may cut back east south of Olympic Park and then go north to see Seattle. Maybe I'll even get to look at some sailboats!
