The rest of Washington

After leaving Anacortes, we caught the ferry from Coupeville to Port Townsend on our way to the 
Olympic Peninsula.  We spent several days camping in the Olympic National Park.  Our favorite place was the Hoh Rainforest which, even though it had not rained in a while, was still filled with vibrant green colors.

We worked our way south after leaving the Olympic National Park, on our way to Mount St. Helens.  The devastation at Mount St. Helens was just amazing to see, but it was also cool to see how much had grown back since I had visited there in 1994.
