Beach time

My first reaction upon arriving at Cap Sante Boat Haven’s North Basin was to get back in the car. I thought better of it, however, and discovered the walkway at Rotary Park was protected from the wind. In short, I had an enjoyable walk to the gazebo and back, stopping just long enough to take […]

Size 11

It’s beach season (some visit year-round, but I’m a fair weather beachcomber). Truth be told, this footprint is actually from an 11.5 tennis shoe. Big feet, big heart?

Public beach project

Beach cleanup and area improvements including street resurfacing and sidewalks continue at the end of Commercial Avenue adjacent to the Port of Anacortes warehouse.

On the beach

Sunday was a wonderful day for a visit to the beach. Sunshine and unseasonably warm temperature drew this family to the beach at Deception Pass State Park. I opted for the view from the bridge.

Pacific hues

Everything about this photograph is “Pacific Northwest,” from heron to hues of color on the Guemes Channel shoreline between Port of Anacortes Pier 1 and Curtis Wharf. A quiet Saturday morning before the annual rumble of motorcyles arriving for Oyster Run.

Kayaking Sunset

This young kayaker made his way along the busy shoreline at Sunset Beach, a gathering spot for dozens of folks last weekend. Activities at Washington Park range from camping and Loop Road walking to picnicking and boating. Always a great place to be on a sunny day.
