Far Out

Low tides reveal the best of Puget Sound. At Discovery Park on Sunday we were able to walk far out onto the mud flats. Above is Z, H, M, and S strolling to the next cluster of rocks to explore.

We found wonderful critters along the way but the lure of seaweed was too strong for M. She was completely captivated by it.

A recent shot of a walk down to the beach at Discovery Park. As we walked along the beach (away from the lighthouse and the crowds), the tide rolled out. We were able to wade out into the very cold water and explore the various critters and rocks and shells. Managed to get a bit of a sun burn on my arms. What a great day.

Discovery Park

The last two weekends the weather has been completely agreeable. Crisp air with temps still pushing 60 degrees. The sun was not shy either. We headed to Discovery Park. The housework can wait - when the weather calls we go! Here are three shots from two different weekends.This bluff is always eroding. Just a few years ago, there was as much bluff beyond those wood posts as behind them. Those are the Olympic Mountains in the distance.
The autumn colors are just past their prime but still beautiful
