Washington Park, Anacortes, WA, USA
Beautiful views of Guemes Channel and Burrows Bay as seen from Washington Park and also the park's famous leaning tree (one of Washington state's most photographed tree) in the historic town of Anacortes on Fidalgo Island in Skagit County, Washington, USA during our trip on Sep. 3, 2011.
Washington Park is located on a peninsula at the western tip of Fidalgo Island. The 220-acre city park features camping, a boat launch, and day use picnic sites. The park juts into Rosario Strait on the western edge of Anacortes, offering territorial views. A scenic 2.3-mile one-way loop road winds through the park's forested hills and meadows with views of the San Juan Islands and Olympic Mountains. The park offers sweeping views of Guemes Channel on one side and Burrows Bay on the other.
At Sunset Beach, on the north shore, there is a boat launch, restrooms, reservable picnic shelter, playground and open play area. There are 75 campsites, restrooms, showers and laundry services in the overnight area. Picnic sites and car pullouts provide beach access along Green Point, the west shoreline. The loop road is used by cars, joggers, bicyclists and walkers.
Anacortes is the gateway to the San Juan and Vancouver Islands. Downtown Anacortes has over 125 life-sized murals painted by local resident Bill Mitchell. He painted the murals over the last 25 years from historical photographs. His art is on display all over Downtown buildings with depictions of historic scenes. Pick up a free mural map at the Visitor Center located at 819 Commercial Avenue as it is a wonderful way to discover Anacortes.
Anacortes is located 18 miles west of Mount Vernon and about one hour drive from Bellingham to the north and Seattle to the south.

Orcas Island, Washington | Camping at Moran State Park | May 2017
My family's magical trip to Orcas Island, Washington. Orcas is one of the main islands in the San Juan Islands chain at the very northwest tip of the contiguous United States in Washington. It is only accessible by ferry from Anacortes, WA.
We camped at Moran State Park on Cascade Lake. Entire island was in full bloom when we visited in May of 2017.
I don't usually post public videos but I wanted to share Orcas Island and Moran State Park for those considering.
Disclaimer about music: I purchased all the music by Hammock used in this video. It was what we listened to while visiting Orcas Island.

Orcas Island, Washington | West Beach Resort
We recently had an experience of fading memories regarding one of our past trips and that is when we embarked on a passion project to keep memories alive! Memories live longer if visually linked, and we have lots and lots of photos and videos - our memories have outgrown the memory limit of hard disks ???? As soon as we returned from our Alaska trip we put together a video which was the first one in the series and here comes the second from one of our past trips - Orcas island ❤️
It feels good to share the incredible beauty this world has to offer and also an opportunity to relive those moments. Many more to come - stay tuned ????
