Hood Canal: Adventure I, Day 3

 Hood Canal: Adventure I, Day 3

Day 3

I drove north to Quilcene.  Stopped at the University of Washington Kinkaid Shellfish Labaratory at Point Whitney.  Drove out to the Marina in Quilcene.  Drove 5 miles up a single lane gravel road to the top of Mt. Walker.  Gas in Quilcene.  Shopped at Whitney's Gardens and Nursery in Brinnon: many Rhodys in bloom. Dinner at Halfway House: 8 breaded Hama Hama oysters dinner.

Here are some of my photos of the area:
