a little piece of heaven on earth

our sighting of Mt. Ranier from the air should have been
an indication of the beauty we were about to behold!





shnauzer crossing inn.....absolutely everything
a b&b should be !






his face tells it all!
leaving for his two days and a night sailing



this is where they anchored for the evening.

echo bay off sucia island

our transportation over to friday harbor

from anacortes.

our first sighting of friday harbor




our hotel......friday harbor historic inn

and our view........

we rented mopeds the next day to tour the entire island!!!

it was a blast! we started at 9:45 a.m. and turned them in at 5:00 p.m.

I think it is the only way to see the island!





the pelindaba lavender farm. smelled soooo good and tasted

good too! we had chocolate lavender ice cream.....yummm


this was our privilege to see all along our ride!

these orcas at lime kiln point were only about 50 yards away...

just amazing!





we ate lunch at roche harbor which is on the other end of the island.

beautiful place....so many flowers and so green!


we rented bicycles and took the ferry over to lopez island for the day.

we were told that lopez was FLAT.....yeah, right...but we

found a beautiful beach and i found my very first piece of sea glass.

i'm sure that means something.....just not sure what...yet!


my dear husband went back to the beach on our way back to the ferry

and got me a bottle of beach sand......he was saving my rear....bicycle seats are not meant to sit on!

what an amazing vacation. i loved every second of it.

and i know we will go back!
