Day 5, Oyster Run, Pudget Sound

We started the morning leaving Anacortes going south. Our first stop was at Deception Point.

Isn't it beautiful?

We walked up on the bridge to look at the fantastic view. We're way up there!

Then on toward the Port Townsend Ferry. We arrived at 10:30 and got in line to leave at Noon. Just about a 30 minute trip to Port Townsend.

There were 12 bikes getting on board.

After leaving the Ferry we headed south along Hwy 101 toward Olympia. Great ride, we enjoyed every mile of it. By the way, Lilliwaup & Humptulips? Who named these poor towns. Someone in Washington State is laughing, hard.

Our next stop was at 4 p.m. at Cabelas in Lacey, Washington. This was the highlight for Bob and Ray!

Grampa is pretending to "feed" the stuffed deer. He's so cute!

This is the display at the front of the store. Pretty cool.

From there we took back country roads heading toward Morton for the night. Fun ride, lots of curves and turns and wide open roads without a lot of traffic. So much better than the freeway. Warm, too. We stopped Alder Lake for some Dam pictures. Ron refused to take the Dam tour though. All this part of the trip was in the shadow of Mt. Rainier. It was a beautiful clear warm day and the mountain was really shining.

Our last stop was in Morton at about 8 p.m. The weather was still warm and the night was beautiful. Looking forward to going across White Pass tomorrow.

  1. We need to figure out a way to post a "where we are now" map. I had to pull out the road atlas to find you!
