Lighthouse Planner 2014

Well, what's in store for 2014? Now that we live closer to the southern end of Puget Sound, why not go local?

The way I see it, there's several trips remaining:
Sequim- Cape Flattery, Destruction Island, New Dungeness, Ediz Hook, Slip Point
Port Townsend- Marrowstone, Point Wilson
San Juans- Lime Kiln, Cattle Point
San Juans charter-Patos, Burrows Point, Turn Point
Localish-Lightship, Alki, Gig Harbor
Coast-Grays Harbor


Possible lighthouse visits for 2014:
Gig Harbor
Alki
We could do our 3 day Sequim trip or even do Port Townsend this year
I'm thinking the two on San Juan island would be excellent for a very hot day this summer

2013 Lighthouse Review

Why did we only visit ONE lighthouse this year? And a first, an ATTEMPTED visit!

We moved this year and had other priorities and took other trips, I suppose.

Lighthouses visited in 2013:
Mukilteo

Grays Harbor Lighthouse or BUST-Westport

BUST.

Well...we headed out after Thanksgiving with the intention of visiting the Gray's Harbor lighthouse in Westport. We stayed in Gray's Harbor, not realizing how far away the lighthouse was, so I decided to call-it was CLOSED.

We did have a fun trip out to the coast, despite not visiting the lighthouse. We explored Ocean Shores a bit and visited a couple more state parks. It was odd to drive our van on the beach and it is ALWAYS grey in Ocean Shores! Fun just being together!

In November 2013, I weigh about 225 pounds and I must honestly admit, I was glad to not climb 137 steps. I want to lose 100 pounds before we visit again-when it's OPEN!

Mukilteo Lighthouse-Mukilteo

We started this morning at Dick's after attending a seminar at Swanson's Nursery on Japanese maples. It was a perfect day to visit the Mukilteo lighthouse! So fun having Gramma join us!
