We awoke in the woods, in rain and fog.  Washington never disappoints…

We went for a walk to find the “beach” and to see the water…

It was a nice walk and the rain was light and intermittent.  The beach was a little rocky:

On the other hand, it was nice to get back into my Rainbows…

The water was, as usual, very nice:

After our walk we drove into Fairhaven, then my brother and I drove back down Chuckanut Drive to an Oyster Farm.  We picked up three dozen oysters to have with dinner.  This farm has been here for over 120 years, and they actually own over 4,000 acres of seabed, all under this water:

Later in the day we strolled the streets of downtown Fairhaven, and the adjacent waterfront:

We saw this little marker, telling of the merger between Bellingham and Fairhaven many years ago:

This evening we enjoyed a lovely dinner and the views from Jim and Pam’s deck:
