(Quinalt Lake)
I am trying to catch up. I already showed you pictures of the beautiful beaches on theWashington Coast, so now I'll share the rest.
We stayed at Seabrook, a sister community to the place where we stayed in Oregon. However, we didn't really spend much time at Seabrook - there were too many interesting places to see up north in Olympic National Park.
We fell in love with Quinalt Lake and nearby waterfalls and hikes:
This is what a lake house looks like in the Rain Forest:
We also loved the Hoh Rain Forest area:
(the massive, moss covered maple trees were absolutely amazing!)
And, since we were in the area...
Four days wasn't nearly enough time to see everything. It is such a beautiful part of our country, we would love to go back someday.
* I am starting to see why I ran out of photo storage space :)
Wonderful photos, glad to see you're back blogging. We missed you!
ReplyDeleteAwesome, awesome, awesome, awesome pictures. I love the Northwest!
ReplyDeleteHello,
ReplyDeleteWonderful pictures and ofcourse the landscape.
We used to live in WA. We have such great memories of the sound, esp. Alki beach. Love the photos! Also would love to hear about the Bella photo, too cool!
ReplyDeleteJust catching up on some blog reading tonight. I'm so far behind. I'm thrilled to see your photos! GORGEOUS! And you are totally right. Just as beautiful a bit wilder! I recognized many of the places you were! Did you go to the Lodge? We hope to stay there this year. We ate at the restaurant and it was nummy. Congrats on your Anniversary too.
ReplyDeleteWow such gorgeous pictures of such a beautiful place.
ReplyDeleteOh wow, what amazing photos of Washington! It actually reminds me a lot of the west coast here in BC :) So pretty and I love your heart quilt in the above entry. Perfect for valentine's day!
ReplyDeleteMemories of the Pacific Northwest where I lived off and on for ten years. Your photos of the moss covered trees, moss on the roof, rushing water and gorgeous views brought smiles. Thanks for the lovely photos. -- barbara (now Kentuckian)
