On Friday, we drove 64 miles to Quileute Oceanside Resort in La Push, Washington. We have a full hook-up site right on the ocean. Great views and sunsets. Very nice.

Friday night, Pam and I went looking for a place to watch football on Saturday and Sunday. First up: Blakeslees Bar and Grill. Good beer selection and the food was good. Next up: Westend Tap and Sip. A cute place run by a very nice couple: MIke and Glenda.

On Saturday, the group drove the Hoh Rainforest National Park. We hiked the Hoh Hall of Moss Trail where we watched a huge Roosevelt Elk walk past us twice! We then had a nice ranger talk on the history and workings of the temperate rainforest.

Then, a small group of us hiked the Hoh River Trail to Mineral Creek Falls. This was a 5.6-mile hike.

On Sunday, another small group of us headed out at 7:00am to for the Hole-in-the-Wall from Rialto Beach hike a 3.3-Mile hike. We needed to get there and back during low tide.

We also visited the Folks Timber Museum. Lots of history from the logging industry in Folks.

On Tuesday, we drove 54 miles to Elwha Dam RV Park in Port Angeles, Washington. This is a very tight RV park where we once again did not have sewer hookups in site B1.

On Wednesday, we took a couple of hikes near Cresent Lake. The short lodge trail, and then the Marymere Falls Trail which was 2.1 miles and very nice. after the hike, we had lunch at the Lodge. A few of us then went to the Barhop Brewery for beer and food and then finished with a walk in the area.

On Thursday morning, 4 of us drove “Dear Park Road” to the top of Blue Mountain (6010 feet) for some great views of the mountain. In the afternoon, we rented eBikes and rode the Spruce Railroad trail @ Lake Crescent. We rode 10 miles along the north shore and then returned.

On Saturday, we traveled 40 miles to Port Townsand and Fort Worden State Park taking a ferry to save 3 hours of driving around Seattle.

Before taking the ferry, we stopped at Fort Casey. Constructed in the late 1800s, Fort Casey was equipped for defense and used as a training facility up to the mid-1940s. The fort houses a pair of rare 10-inch disappearing guns. While the guns were the height of technology in the early 1900s, improvements in warships and the advent of airplanes soon rendered them obsolete. Two additional 3-inch mounted guns are also on display in their original emplacements.
