Port Townsend and Sequim, WA (Thursday, August 27th, 2020)


A couple of weeks ago, Steve and I met my high school friend Linda-Ann and her husband in Tokeland, WA, just south of West Port, WA.  We had such a great time, that we decided to do it again.  They are currently camping on the Olympic Peninsula, so our plan was to come up early and snoop around, and then meet them later in the day in the town of Sequim, WA.  

Our first stop for the day was Port Townsend.  A beautiful port town just east of Sequim.  It was foggy and cool, but a beautiful day for exploring.












The Maritime Center has a boat shop where they build and repair boats.  Interesting!







Mount Baker in the distance.



When we finished up in Port Townsend, we made our way to Sequim where we would be meeting Linda-Ann, her twin, Kate (also a friend from high school) and both of their husbands.  It was hard to explore here because we were so excited to see everyone!

We found ourselves a farm stand and bought some kale, corn and fresh basil to take home.  The man working this particular stand was in his 90's, and still worked the farm and stand each day.  He had some great stories to tell.  I just love this little town.




Cline Spit County Park.



The end of this spit was privtely owned, and had literally been taken over by seagulls.



When we left the spit, Linda-Ann and clan were just coming back into cell service and heading our way, but because of an unfortunate incident with a wasp nest, Steve and I ended up having to head back without ever meeting up.  It wasn't our lucky day, but after my incident with fire ants a few years ago, I don't take chances anymore.
