Ferry Ride to Orcas Island

Ferry to Orcas Island
This is a picture from the ferry on a recent trip to Orcas Island. It was my first trip to the San Juan Islands. The ride was surreal. There was a low layer of fog with island mountains popping out and sun slicing through it in places. There was also a white rainbow aka a fogbow. I’ve been fortunate to be on some really nice ferry rides since I’ve been in the Northwest, but this one took the cake.

The Road to Seattle

I-90 from Bandera Mountain

I-90 from Bandera Mountain

A little bonus now that I’m hiking in the amazing Cascades is the return trip home. The drive back to Seattle on I-90 happens to be the same as the final stretch of my cross-country drive last September. So each time I’m seeing the mountains and tall trees lining the highway (oops I mean freeway) and then finally the Seattle skyline and the Olympic Mountains on the horizon, it flashes me back to the end of an exciting journey and the beginning of another.
