Ocean Shores

August 2013

We spent two weeks of August at the Washington coast, Ocean Shores and Copalis Beach.  To paraphrase Mark Twain, it was the coldest winter of our RVing life.

To be fair, it only rained twice.  Once for 6 days, and once for 7 days.

Here's a video of us sunning ourselves on the beach.

There was a beached whale that had been there for about a month

and a nice starfish

We went to the Quinalt Rain Forest (in Washington, they just call it "the forest"), and saw some of the biggest trees of their species in the world.

We ate lunch at a fancy hotel

that had a rain gauge

Went hiking, saw some waterfalls

plant and animal life

and, of course, more big trees

Rob and Amber and the kids came up for a few days

and had a good time.  There was a sand sculpture in town

 and, of course, we had dungeness crabs.  More pictures.
