Signs of Winter

2016 Out West, Road Trip, Washington


Northwest Washington has two seasons, sunny summer and dreary winter. We’re dancing on the boundary. Yesterday we enjoyed some glorious sunshine as we walked on Hurricane Ridge but today, on this last day of the Summer season the skies are leaden. We packed up and are heading south on US-101 along the eastern side of the peninsula. We’re seeing some autumn foliage and another sign that the season is done, a highway sign indicating the turnoff to a campground with an attached sign that the campground will reopen on April 1st. Guess we’ll not stay there this trip!
