shadowmeboy Posted June 29, 2018 Author #78 Share Posted June 29, 2018 (edited) The lighthouse near the ferry dock in Mukilteo. My Mother painted a picture of this and framed it for us. Isn't that cool? Naval Station Everett. I am going to pause here for the evening. Edited June 29, 2018 by shadowmeboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD29P5 Posted June 29, 2018 #79 Share Posted June 29, 2018 I hope you enjoy your trip! I loved Icy Strait Point. What are you planning on doing there? We're doing an ATV expedition. Had so much fun on one on Kauai thought we'd give one a shot a little further north. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted June 30, 2018 Author #83 Share Posted June 30, 2018 We started to see the farmland of North Snohomish and Skagit Counties. At Mount Vernon, We pulled into a siding to allow the Southbound Amtrak Cascades train from Vancouver BC to pass. A short video of the train passing by. Near Bellingham, we were back out on the Puget Sound. Oil tankers in the distance and oyster beds on the tide flats. An Eagle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowmeboy Posted June 30, 2018 Author #85 Share Posted June 30, 2018 A ton of Kite boarders out on the water. I reminded Susan that we would be crossing into Canada shortly, and she needed to eat her Apple she picked up at the hotel that morning. She wasn't allowed to transport fruits across the International Border! Quick joke: Why does Amtrak only carry Pepsi on its train to Canada? It doesn't want to transport Coke across the border.
