La Push





We then drove to the beach where we were suppose to hike 1.5 miles down the beach to the tide pools to look at the sea life in the tide pools and a large arch carved out by the surf. However it was kind of the wrong time of month do to that as the low tide at mid-day was still pretty high and once we started walking in the rocks that we would sink into we realised we may not make it down there and back in time. So we had one of my favorite days just walking down the beach between the surf and treeline beach combing for treasures. We picked up a number of rock and found some interesting items that had washed up. This photo of the old couple is one of my favorites. Dressed in there wet weather gear, gum boots and all, they splashed and danced in the sea foam for so long. It was heartwarming on this cold drizzly day to watch them just enjoy life like two kids playing in mud puddles!
