Wednesday, we left Randle and headed to Olalla. What a beautiful drive. We arrived in Olalla and made the last turn onto the road that “our” house was on. Just as we turned, there was a sign that said weight limit 5 tons. (We are over 12 tons.) Tony stopped right in the road, blocking two roads. There was a little convenience store on the corner of where we turned, so with me blocking the traffic on the road, he was able to back up and pull into the store. There was a gentleman pumping gas who told us an alternate way to get there and with some maneuevering, we were able to get turned around. Then, we passed Casey & Tina’s house, so we pulled over and Tony walked back up to the house. Casey was there and they drove around looking for a place we could turn around. Finally, we got in their yard and parked. We met the kids and the cats & dog and Tina had supper ready for us. They were still packing to leave for Germany on Thursday. I turned in early. Thursday, they got off to the airport and later in the afternoon, we went exploring the area. We are in Olalla, which doesn’t even show up on maps. We went through Tacoma and crossed the bridge over the Tacoma Narrows that replaced the “Galloping Gertie”. We are on the Kitsap Peninsula and there are several towns on this peninsula. The Puget Sound is absolutely beautiful. We have lots to do while we are here.

First totem pole – saw it in Port Orchard.
