September 2011 Holiday

  I have posted a new photo gallery page on the lookylou blog. You will notice a new tab in the navigation bar at the top at the far right, labelled “Holidays”.

We stayed for 3 nights at the Fidalgo Bay RV park before meeting up with Alan and Cory at the Pioneer Trails RV park a few miles away. So...

A view along the Thompson Trail which runs past the Fidalgo Bay RV park and into the town of Anacortes. The trail starts off by a small park near the humungous Shell oil refinery on the outskirts of Anacortes. This view is looking towards Anacortes, which can be seen in the distance on the left. Anacortes is where the Washington State ferry terminal is located for catching a ferry to Victoria BC on Vancouver Island. There were a lot of joggers and cyclists using the paved pathway while we were...
