Hurricane Holiday

Quite an odd coincidence that I was on holiday at Hurricane Ridge when I heard about the evacuation of New Orleans due to Hurricane Katrina. I can't imagine that Hurricane Ridge on the Olympic Penninsula was ever actually hit by a Hurricane. Especially considering the placid weather we encountered while there.

I was up on the Ridge for the first time ever, at least that I can recall. Mom and Amanda & David Freed joined me for the salubrious views over the Olympic Mountain range, including a couple glaciers.

Mom and I stayed at the Best Western Lodge in Port Angeles with large, comfortable, non-smoking rooms and NO MOSQUITOS!
