Westport is an impressive seacoast town.
Tourist were enjoying an art festival on this weekend.
The harbor is full of private and commercial fishing boats.
Buy your fresh tuna off the boat.
Fish hatchery protected by nets from the hungry seagulls.
Shoppers looking at the many arts and crafts.
We enjoyed fish 'n chips at this popular restaurant.
Former home of our niece and her family.
Up the coast, Ocean City with a population of 250, is a wide spot in the road.
The community has many nice beaches.
Local oyster business.
Piles of oyster shells show good business in fresh oysters.
At the town of Ocean Shores, fans of the Seattle Seahawk's Football team
enjoy an auto and craft show.
All the cars painted with the team colors and logo.
In South Bend, WA, we were surprised to find this elegant
Pacific County Courthouse built in 1910.
The lobby is impressive with this stain glass dome.
The value is set at between $500,000 to a million.
How neat to see some pictures of our former hometown. The tuna boat "The Hustler" is the one my husband Matthew filleted fish on. Steve Goodson is the owner of the boat. I can't believe he's still working there. The picture of the home you took was not ours but our nearest neighbor's home. We had that view from the barn. Pretty home. Many people would stop along the road to take a picture of that home. The courthouse... I forgot about that. We went on a drive in our first year there and found that beautiful building. It is truly a gem. I'm so glad you got to see so many things that meant something to us. It looks like you had good weather too! : )
ReplyDeleteOur niece and family live on Bainbridge Island. We never took the coach but did fly to Washington state to visit them. We would love to explore the area further, and your blogs will give us some ideas, I'm sure.
