Traveled south on Thursday to do a presentation and had time to enjoy a different view at day's end.

Olympic Mountains from Whidbey Island, WA

It was a grand day, but a little chilly on the water.

October cheers, :D

Thanks for that Joe! Brings me back to when I was stationed at Whidbey Island NAS, looks like this photo was taken near the ferry to Port Townsend?

I thought about you when I was on Whidbey and shot this one to take you back. I'll bet you remember this bridge. :wink:

Deception Pass, WA

It's quite spectacular when the tide is rushing in or out of the pass. Not a great place for swimming! :shock:

Saw my first bald eagles up close from that bridge - 2 adults teaching 2 young ones to fish on the east side of the bridge, then they flew directly over our heads and into the sunset!

Also, when I got discharged from the Navy, I flung my white sailor hats off the east side of Deception Pass bridge just for fun to express my new-found civilian freedom. Boy, they went a long way :shock: Fold the brim down halfway and they sail just like frisbees! :lol:
