Views of Sequim, the Olympic Peninsula. . .and beyond
So the day before was FOG. This morning beautiful sun was poking thru the clouds and fog to momentarily give this view of John Wayne Marina. I keep my camera on the window sill because things change in seconds. Now you see it, now you dont…
I had just watched the horror movie THE FOG on Halloween when the next day a thick fog came into Sequim bay. But if lightly lifted just around the marina to give me this shot for just a few seconds.
This kingfisher kept going in and out of the bushes near the marina. The photo gets soft around his head and left wing due to the blowing leaves.
But it reminded me of an angel flying…
I just loved how the fog wove in and out of the trees at the marina.
There is a very pretty overlook above the John Wayne Marina with spots for picnics and a sidewalk that opens up to views of the marina and Sequim Bay.
Benches allow wanderers to stop and take in the scenery. In the foreground here is Sequim Bay. In the longer distance is the Strait of Juan de Fuca.
The trees here are glorious in autumn They’re just beginning to turn color now.
There was a perfect day late last month when getting out on the water seemed just the thing to do. We went to the John Wayne Marina to have a look.
Sailboats were outside the breakwater in Sequim Bay.
Inside the breakwater other boats were coming and going, many of them returning from a day of fishing.
And, if you’re wondering, yes, the marina is named after that John Wayne. He spent summers boating here and eventually donated the property named after him that became our marina. His family still owns property around the marina.
