Columbia Gorge, OR to Hoodsport, WA.....Friday 1st August 2014

Today we head north across the Columbia River back into Washington to spend time on the Olympic Peninsular....
A fairly straightforward drive but being Friday the traffic is quite heavy on the I-5 and landscape very industrial but once we turn west onto the 101 it is all very rural.... 
One of the many bridges on the I-5...... 
And total contrast as we arrive at our campsite for the next 3 nights , a nice small campsite just outside of Hoodsport on the Hood Canal...
This is the private dock for the hotel and campsite......we were going to walk the mile back to town along the beach but the tide is in.....so much for todays exercise, will have to make up for it tomorrow when we head into the State park....

It's a very beautiful spot and  although it was cloudy when we left Columbia Gorge this morning it is now sunny and high 80's F...
The Happy Campers are having sundowners looking over at the Hood Canal as I type this report.....
