Ocean Shores - Lake Sylvia State Park

Day 7 , Friday 9/23/05

Finally, a shopping day! We drove to Ocean Shores and explored the shops. Found a great gallery on the main drag and bought a glass ball. Very nice. Then we went to the Quinalt casino. Played blackjack for awhile, had fun, and left with money. Not as much as we went in with - but more than we expected.

Next stop, Lake Sylvia State Park - site no. 11 right on the lake. We went for a bike ride as soon as we got here. We were ready for some exercise. It's another beautiful day. This park is great. Just outside the park are lots of logging roads to explore.

Day 8, Saturday 9/24/05

Today we did the loop walk through the woods. The trail meanders next to a small river... last time we were here we saw otters. No such luck today - the water level was pretty low.

After lunch Dave read while I worked on the photo album. Pretty relaxing except for the generator next door. We started the fire mid-afternoon and had hot dogs for dinner. Then it was more yachtzee and cribbage.

Day 9, Sunday am

Vacation is over! We got up early and headed home. The cats were very happy to see us.
