It’s been awhile!

Well it's been 3 days and too busy to update the blog! We started off Tuesday heading east across the Island to Duncan only to turn around and head west again throught a extremly windy road to the west coast of the Island to Port Renfrew.  A very quiet road through the mountains, lots of places to stop and enjoy the beauty (Mike-"Have a beer!")From Port Renfrew to Pedder Bay the rode became extremely windy with hairpin turns thru beautiful cedar redwoods along the ocean.We camped on the harbour at Pedder Bay RV resort. Cheap (only $61.00 for a tent site), beautiful though. Randy and Lynn met up with us as they were boat shopping in Victoria. After a nice supper we sat and had beers.
Up early the next day, Lynn and Randy had to leave fot the ferrry  to meet with Dave and Sylvie who are passing through to California. We rode on by ourselves to the Butchart Gardens on on to the Victoria harbour. Mike especially liked all the flowers!! Llunch and drinks on the waters edge before taking the Blackball Ferry to Port Angeles. After leaving Port Angeles, we rode up to Hurricane Ridge National Park. We were as high as the mountain peaks overlooking the valleys below. Breath taking. It was getting late so decided to camp near by at the Dungeness State Park, right on the coast in the large cedar trees.
This morning we slept in a little, finally a quiet campground, and will ride to Anacortes to see Lynn and Randy again. Happy Birthday to Lynn today, Im sure we will do it up right later.
