Summer dreams and winter mania

Mystery Bay boat

Here’s another favorite shot from 2014, taken at Mystery Bay on Marrowstone Island. The view here is sublime and is especially nice to see since it’s on the way to a great place to camp, Fort Flagler State Park. It’s about an hour’s drive from Sequim.

A pier not far from this spot is the location of an annual polar bear plunge on January 1st. Crazy people Intrepids hurl themselves into local waters for reasons that elude me, especially when the ambient air temperature is in the mid-20s.
