July 5th Road Trip

Me and Mom went on a road trip! Here we are crossing the Tacoma Narrows Bridge.

Then later we went over another bridge! This is the Hood Canal Floating Bridge.

We went for a hike on the beach at Port Townsend.  Mom says it was time to test out how her foot is doing.

Here is a sea urchin shell washed up on the beach.

There were so many things to do at the beach! I like the way the kelp flows over the rocks. It looks like the rocks are packages wrapped up like gifts. I wanted to bring some of the rocks home with us. Mom said I could pick only ONE. And not a big heavy one.  It was hard to decide. We picked a second one out for Dixie. Dixie did not come with us because we were not sure if dogs are allowed on the trails we were planning on going on. Which is not where we ended up hiking because mom parked too soon.  But it was great! I loved the beach!  I could have stayed all day but then mom mentioned Lunch which is one of my favorite things.

We ordered soup and half a sandwich at a yummy restaurant.  I LOVE restaurants!  It was carrot ginger soup – fantastic!

There was a fiddle festival going on at Port Townsend this weekend!  We watched for a while.

There was also a street fair going on. This is what is so great about a road trip. You never know what will happen!

We walked by a house where there were deer just walking around in the yard!  I was VERY good and just looked.

Then we went to a really beautiful plant nursery named Far Reaches that mom wanted to see.

This is why red is my favorite color – don’t I look great?

On the way home we had to pay a toll. It was fun! Mom gave the toll lady some chocolates.  I did not know you could pay in chocolate.  Mom explained that she did pay with money but gave the chocolates as a gift. Also so she could say she did not eat the whole bag herself.
