68 miles of travel got us to the ferry dock at Coupeville, $18.25 got us on the boat for a 35 minute cruise to the Olympic Peninsula.

First order of business Fort Warden just south of town, one of the "Triangle of Fire" forts built to protect the Puget Sound from invasion of those crazy Brits.

Right out of the parking lot the sign says, hey! its dangerous here!


Chunk-o-fort


One of the places you can fall and hurt yourself, I suppose.


Point Wilson Lighthouse/bird dropping collector. Mt. Baker in the distance.


Had perfect weather and many many miles of beach to explore
Skip - I grew up in Port Townsend 2 blocks from Ft. Worden. Those Bunkers are connected by long, dark tunnels and were closed to the public back then. As young a 14, we'd sneak in on our motorcycles, ride down the steps and thru the tunnels honking our horns.......Movie Officer and Gentleman was filmed there........

No freaking idea WTF the story is behind this.


New parking lot at a Starbucks, guess Chevron is playing hardball and not wanting to give it up.
