Weekend on the Olympic Peninsula

We spent a long weekend exploring Puget Sound. Click here for photos from stops that included Gig Harbor, Poulsbo, Bainbridge Island, Port Townsend and Tacoma. We met up with Jake who was in the Seattle area to celebrate the birth of Theo, Elli's new nephew. Congratulations to Elli's sister and Theo's parents, Mary Morgan and Tim!

Pictured above is Pia the Peacemaker, another of Thomas Dambo's trolls, whom we visited on Bainbridge Island.  Pictured below is an especially scenic spot at Finn River Farm and Cidery, just south of Port Townsend, where we just need Emily & Coleman to visit to complete our photo-set.


While in Port Townsend, we happened upon a crazy rescue effort for a sail boat that ran aground on some shallow rocks.  It took much of the day to get it unstuck and keep it from sinking.  There are lots of photos and a time-lapse video in the album linked above. 
The album also includes photos from Tacoma's Point Defiance Park and the Tacoma Art Museum, which has a great collection of Chihuly Glass; and a video of Pat and Jake doing karaoke at the Slippery Pig in Poulsbo, where Saturday evening was One-Hit-Wonders Night.
