Ports Townsend (7/12)

My sister in law, Linda,and Nephew, Chris with girlfriend, Kim, joined us for the weekend.  They are staying Sequim, about 37 miles away.  We drove there Saturday morning to pick them up and go explore Port Townsend.  Joe and I will be taking the ferry from there over to Coupeville WA on the 18th then driving up the 5 to Canada.  Joe wanted to see where the ferry was so we wouldn't have any problems towing the fifth wheel there.

After checking out the ferry we went to the local farmers market.  Very nice little market with great food.  We shared two wood-fired pizzas. Joe also bought some kind of taco that came with meat and a spicy cabbage slaw and homemade corn tortillas.  They were very good.

 I discovered they had big chocolate chip walnut cookies and had to have one.

Once we all were full we headed over to Ft Worden and the beach.  Once parked we saw they had a light house.  Joe and I really like to go tour light houses so we headed over to it.  While we were watching a little video on light houses, I looked up and who did I see, Patty Carpenter.  What a surprise, I don't know who was more shocked me or her.
What fun to run into someone from home.  I wished I had some time to visit but it was our time to take the tour so we had to say good by.

Then a walk on the beach






It was nice to spend a little more time with family.  I know it will be a while before we see them again!!!!
