Sept 9th - Sequim, WA

Sept 9th - Sun - Sequim
We took advantage of another lovely sunny day by spending most of the day sightseeing - laundry can wait!
We drove to Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic National Forest. By walking up a trail, you get a panoramic view of Port Angeles, Sequim, Straight of Juan de Fuca, Vancouver Island/Victoria on one side and the snow capped mountains in the park on the other side. Next, on to Lake Crescent to eat our picnic lunch. The mountains go right into a lot of the lake so the beaches are sparse and small. But it is beautiful and lots of people were swimming. From there we drove through Joyce back to Port Angeles and out onto the Ediz Hook which is a massive breakwater forming a protected harbor. Back to the rig to visit the dog and then on to the local casino. Very strange casino with 4 different tickets and cash machines. I was nearing my limit when I won $50 on a 25 cent bet so that bailed me out. Terry did not do so well and I did not cover his losses!
