Hurricane Ridge

We traveled on Tuesday to a RV park on Sequim Bay (pronounced Skwim) near Puget Sound and will stay here for a week over Labor Day week-end. We have a great view of the bay and marina and all the boats going by. The route here was, once again, all "S" curves and up and down hills - found myself longing for the never ending, straight roads in west Texas!
The weather here is lovely - as our friend Bob would say "sweatshirts and shorts." The locals say summer just arrived in mid-August!
We drove into Olympic National Park yesterday and hiked on Hurricane Ridge. Summer wildflowers alongside winter snow and gorgeous mountains. The park is huge so we will move westward next week to better see more of it.
We are enjoying a little "down time" - playing catch up with cleaning and business. I got my worst haircut of our travels this week - even had to let Roger trim the back! Wouldn't you know - right before we leave for Ireland! I need to start planning what to pack - miss having an extra bedroom to start laying things out in!
We are going to the Farmer's Market tomorrow. We went to one in Astoria and bought fresh veggies and flowers and ate delicious seafood. Hope this one is as good!
I dragged Roger to see the movie "The Help" last night - he and three other men in a sea of women! Must have been "ladies night out" in Port Angeles! It was good but, as always, I liked the book better!
We are looking forward to taking the ferry and our bikes to Vancouver Island and touring Victoria this week-end. We were shocked at the ferry prices - $92.00 round trip for us and our bikes! Didn't even try to calculate the cost of taking the motorhome!
