Seattle to Elwah River

Yesterday, I was supposed to meet Allex in downtown Seattle where she lives near Pike's Place Market. The garage she had made arrangements with tried to take $100 from me for an overnight stay...no way. So, after driving up and down the hills of downtown, I gave up and met up with her in the suburb of Renton where her boyfriend Steve lives. We piled in Steve's 1965 Galaxy...sweet...and he took us out for pizza at the Rock in downtown Renton. Allex and I sipped dirty martinis and then had an original "bucket" of rum. Yum. Walked over to the World of Beer and drank an Irish Death. The trivia contest was in full swing and a song came on that Al and I sang at the top of our lungs...The Way by Fastball...pretty sure the dude next to us is the only person who got that question right, courtesy of us. Piled back into the Galaxy and had a nice fire in the backyard. 

Drove to the Olympic Peninsula today and drove through Port Angeles to Lake Crescent. What a beautiful place. 

We are now camped near the Elwah River for the night. Kayaking tomorrow on Lake Crescent and then on to Lake Ozette. 

I fell in love with Washington when I crossed the bay from Astoria. It just gets better the more I see. 

Peace, love, and safe parking to all.
