The weather this year in the
Pacific Northwest has been really wet and chilly, so we decided to go on a day
trip to the Olympic National Forest instead of going camping, and we are glad we
did since it tried to rain on us! We also ended up taking the Grand
Self-Guided Tour of the three rivers we like to camp on, the Dosewallips, the
Lilliwaup, and the Hamma Hamma.
But first, I have some
photographs from the back yard and the Pierce College Puyallup Parking Lot to
share with you!

Hello 'lil
Hattietram!
This is Misc.
section of the web page! |
Both of
these photographs of ferns were taken in my back yard, next to Hattie,
Awwwwws! |
More
backyard ferns! |
I was
sitting in my car reviewing for my final in Auditing class, and I saw
these interesting - looking plants growing in the median in the parking
lot, so I decided to take a picture before class! Yay!
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
The first
stop on the Grand Tour of the Olympic National Forest was a former camp
site with a gate with the words "Keep Out" written on it! |
This camp
site featured mossy trees and the Dosewallips on three sides of the camp
site. |
We drove up
the road and found another camp site along the Dosewallips where we have
camped before, and where I took some excellent new pictures!
|
I am amazed
at how well these pictures came out! |

The mist
effect is created by a long exposure time and waves lapping up on the
shore.
|
|
|
I like
these flowers!
|
 |
 |
 |
 |
|
On our way
to the end of the road, we stopped and took some pictures of these mossy
trees.
|
Then we
made our way up to the Lilliwaup River and didn't find much, so we
headed over to the Hamma Hamma River.
This is a camping
spot we visitied last year. The Hamma Hamma River has a large rock
in the middle of the river. |
We have
camped in this spot before but the river was up quite a bit this time.
|
I like this
tree grove!
Thank you very
much for visiting our web page! Have fun! |
