Bellingham

Yesterday's travels took us up to northern Washington (no, the tulips aren't blooming yet!) to Bellingham via Chuckanut Drive - overlooking the San Juan Islands. We wandered in the charming old Bellingham suburb of Fairhaven where the southern terminus of the Alaska State Ferry system is now. Then we hiked in Watcom State Park, where a waterfall beckoned as surely to me as it would have to my father.

From the Forget-me-nots to the trees to the blue and gold ferry sitting in the dock, it could have been Southeast Alaska. Amazing.
