Eager to take the new gear out for more photos, I headed north up highway 101 to Port Angeles. I couldn't resist a stop at the Sequim sunny Farms store en route, however, as it has the best produce and local honey!
This trip was a first for me. I know, I've lived on this peninsula for over 25 years, but going out on back roads is not usually my style. It's just like they say, get off the main road! See the sights along the less traveled areas.
My main attraction was the Salt Creek area, on the northern most end of the Olympic Peninsula which views the body of water called the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Not the ocean exactly, but close. You can look across that body of water and see Vancouver island.
The images from this trip took three stops. Salt Creek park, a lookout area and the actual beach.
These are the only two black and whites from that area.
This one was from the waterfront of the campground.
This is on the beach at Salt Creek itself. The tide was
coming in fast so I didn't have any more time than to snap about three
shots and get back around the bend before the water filled the cove.
The campground there is delightful, I must visit again.
Near this area I found a road that lead me to some old bunkers you could actually drive through! I enjoyed taking pictures here, and even encountered an apparition, although I didn't know it until I uploaded the photos to my computer.
This place was a little dark, quiet and I was there alone, not my favorite combination but it didn't really feel scary, just empty.
Here are the shots from the bunkers.
If you zoom in on the above image and look near the ground on the right, you'll see an odd shaped spherical object.
