That can not be Clallam Bay. The sun is shinning? Looks like a beautiful day! My mother grew up a few miles from there, near Port Angeles.

Indeed, it was Clallam Bay... and sunny too!

Late June this year...


got away with only one jacket at times and even down to a tee shirt out at Sand Point near Lake Ozette!




Found a cool ship's light bulb too

Note this car is not turning into the left lane, front tires are parallel to the lines. Wonder if the guy had any idea.
