This post represents another installment in the series documenting our West Coast National Parks trip in the summer of 2017. Alan and I, along with our 18 year old daughter, Kyra, logged a total of 8,513 memorable miles of adventure over the course of five and a half weeks during the months of July and August.
After picking up the West Coast National Parks Trip series of posts again in mid-May, I realized that I had forgotten to include the “day number” in the last two posts. Our last day on the Oregon coast plus the time we spent at Mount Rainier National Park and our arrival at Salt Creek Recreation Area in Port Angeles, Washington, covered Days 25, 26, 27 and 28. The two days we spent at Olympic National Park (the first of which is documented in today’s post) were Days 29 and 30. It was hard to believe that we had been on the road for a full month already. They say time flies when you’re having fun. Well, it really flies when you’re having fun AND trying to jam as much as possible into each and every day.
