Quinault Lodge

This is a favorite place I found exploring by myself years ago.

I have enjoyed coming here to restore and often meet up with people I perchance to meet and connect with.

Today I met Ann and Stan from NY.
They've been coming here for 25 years from NY.

I've been coming here for maybe 16 years. But they come every year.

The lodge was built in a little over 2 months time in 1929. Trees below are only 85 years old.

Met some wonderful people here.
Yesterday. Anne, and Stan.
If you see this leave a
Message. It's private. I'd love to stay in touch!

The three of us stood by the large rain gauge talking for a spell. In the rain. Refreshing.

Views From Home

Strait of Juan de Fuca , Salish Sea, Rivers, Blue Flax, pasqueflower flowers, cats.

Unexpected Company and a trip to LaConner (tulips) and Bowman Bay hike.

A feast afterwards of traditional NW cuisine , fresh halibut, thnx Bob and Dungeness crab, thanks again Bob.

Beautiful fresh Washington state asparagus, with shallots and vegetable bullion. and large delicious Brussels sprouts in a curry sauce.

Tulips were beautiful, visited Christiansons nursery too,. and Snowgoose produce. A really sweet hike and putting together a feast, after 3 hours sleep last night I'm really tired.
Sorry no photos of 12 crabs and 45 lbs of halibut. Or dinner.
