Ruby beach, wa

It’s taken me forever to get these up! This was our last great destination while on the Olympic peninsula in Washington while my dad was in town back in February. We had spent the weekend further in the on peninsula and on the last day we drove to the coast before swinging around to head back to Seattle.

The weather was crazy that day. It was pouring rain all day long. As we drove up to the beach we got an insane view of the ocean. The wind was whipping the trees around and the waves were crashing onto the beach and up against the rocks. It was a little scary but we braved the weather and went to explore the beach. Despite our rain gear we all ended up soaked and cold but for that view on that day it was perfect.

After a long ride home driving in the rain and me serenading everyone along with the radio we made it home. We got takeout for dinner and watched Moonrise Kingdom which my dad really loved. It was a pretty great ending to a really fun trip.

While we were staying in the Olympic peninsula last month we spent the afternoon at the Salt Creek Recreational Area. There is an old World War II bunker located there that we wanted to see. We got pretty lucky too because the weather decided to be lovely! We took a short hike around the water and found a magical set of stairs that led down to some cliffs and the water. I was hoping to see some tide pools but the tide was pretty high so I just did my best to stay dry. Plus sometimes (maybe more than sometimes) the ocean scares me.

Anyhow we had lunch in the sun and said goodbye to Salt Creek and hello to our private cabin in the woods.
