We drove to Gig Harbor last
Friday to spend a couple of nights. We left Whidbey Island by ferry, departing from
Coupeville and arriving in Port Townsend. We took our Winnebego motorhome and Ford F-150 on
the ferry and it was 47-miles shorter and saved us the stress of driving
through Seattle on I-5 with its stop-and-go traffic.
We did, however, drive to
Seattle on Saturday, so Paul could take his last exam to get his biology
teaching certificate. We enjoyed time at a nearby park while he was testing.
Paul passed all four of
his exams (in Omaha, Bismarck, Portland and Seattle) for his teaching
certificates. He spent much of his time over the past six weeks studying as we
drove down the road on our trip from Austin, Texas to the Pacific Northwest. We
all celebrated Saturday night with a nice seafood dinner at Anthony’s in Gig
Harbor. I enjoyed the grilled king salmon and halibut.
Early Sunday morning Julie
and I drove Paul, Ying and our grandson Connor to the Seattle-Tacoma airport so
they could fly to San Francisco to catch their flight home to Taipei.
We left Gig Harbor after
we got back from the airport and drove to Salem, Oregon to spend two nights at Hee
Hee Illahee RV Resort. Now we’re on our way to northern California to visit
Redwood National Park.
