Hello and happy Thursday,
MY thoughts and prayers are for all the victims of Hurricane Harvey in Texas.
I am sharing some images from our Washington State trip. For 4 nights in May, we stayed on the Pacific Coast at the Quiluete Ocean Resort. The resort is located right next to the Olympic National Park and we had an ocean front room on First Beach. The resort is operated by the Quiluete Tribe, there are no TV's or Wifi in the rooms. This was our second time staying at this resort they are very reasonably priced for an ocean front room.

This is a Pacific Wren or in some places known as the Winter Wren.
A scene from the trail to the Third Beach, it is a 1.4 mile hike one way.
Pink Trillium was seen all along the trail to the beach.
Hike to the Third beach, there is a pile of driftwood or more like a wall of tree trunks to climb over when you get to the bottom of the trail on the beach.

Outside our room I was able to watch the White-crowned Sparrows and Gulls begging for food near the picnic tables.
A view gulls from our balcony.
