Wildlife Wednesday- Galapagos Tortoise

It was so cool to see the giant Tortoises walking right down the path looking for some good shade. If you haven’t been, you wont be disappointed. Go to the Galapagos while they are still there and open (permits to visit are getting more and more restrictive.)

The Jefferson County Courthouse

The Jefferson County Courthouse majestically overlooks Port Townsend Bay and the entrance to Admiralty Inlet. Approved for construction in 1890 by the
Jefferson County Commissioners, the Romanesque style courthouse, brainchild
of Seattle architect W. A. Ritchie, was let out to contractors at an estimated cost of $150,000.00.

Welcome Back To The Olympic Peninsula! And SNOW

It has snowed twice already in 2024 here. (I managed to miss the BIG week of snow in January) I woke up to this–the forecasters said sun all day. THE PNW forecasting job would be a great one. You can be right less than 50% of the time and still keep your job! It is very difficult to forecast here because we are the first place all weather disturbances hit first. Then they more predictably flow across the US. The snow is pretty, but I prefer to go visit IT on my own terms. Living here mean usually I can drive just 10-30 minutes and be in snow all winter.
