This morning we woke in our beautiful new Escape Trailer @
Deception Pass State Campground on Whidbey Island. Despite having about 300
camp sites, the site that we had was very secluded. Looking out from our
“bedroom” windows, we couldn’t see another camper despite being surrounded by
them. The woods were lush and green (due to the massive amounts of
precipitation). The wildflowers were plentiful and the green foliage constantly
dripped from all that rain!!! Having not yet shopped for groceries since
leaving home 1 week ago, breakfast was sparse. At least I had some good coffee!
After spending some time organizing the trailer and the car, we decided to head
onto Fidalgo Island for groceries and tourism. A quick visit to a Safeway
allowed us to purchase some groceries which included some fresh caught sockeye
salmon – it was delicious! From there, we did a walking tour of historic
downtown Anacortes. We also drove to some bluffs looking down on the town and
then headed to the other side of the island where we did a 2-1/2 mile walk in
Washington State Park. We could actually see across the bay to where we hope to
camp on Monday night! We got back to the campground where we continued to
organize, took some walks around the campground, played some cribbage and
listened to the rain hit our roof. Dinner was great, the bed was comfortable
and warm and we are still having a blast! Until next time…..
