On the Road to Seabeck Scenic Beach Part 2



Mild January temperatures in the 50's AND no rain bring out two kayakers to enjoy the water before low tide fully sets in and leaves them stranded on mud flats.

 Sail boat at rest...

In some parallel universe this must be my fishing boat...it is even the right color.  In this universe it appears to be owned by the Seabeck Pizza Parlor.  I hope they have wonderful pizza to make up for this cosmic injustice!

On the Road to Seabeck Scenic Beach Part 1


As so often happens, the road to the place I want to see ends up as interesting in it's own unique way as I anticipate the destination to be interesting/unique.  The road to Seabeck State Park took me over a wonderful view of the Sound as well an estuary that was filled with sea birds, ducks and even a huge flock of Black Birds.




Human and bird all enjoying the 52 degree weather and small breaks in the clouds that allowed the sun to shine now and then.

Winter Sun Rise!


The Sun is beginning to make her graceful appearance in the Northwest.  7:40 AM and early morning light has returned.

Exploring Key Pennisula



Could not get close enough to the ducks to verify their species but thought the blue boat surrounded by water fowl was just about as perfectly Puget Sound as it gets!  Then there was a home that had the Sound in the front yard with a car in the driveway and a boat parked in front of the car.  Also perfect!

Watching me watching him standing in the rain....


He at least has an excuse to be standing in the rain...Puget Sound is his grocery store.
