Deception Pass

On Saturday we visited Deception Pass! There were 10 of us, in 3 cars: Lisa and Troy in their Mercedes, with Hailey and Morgan; Valarie, Dave and Maxx in the BMW, and Lee and I, Lindsay and Madi, bringing up the rear in the Nissan! :)

We parked before the bridge, and walked across the first half, then under the bridge and back up on the other side. The views were beautiful, and there were lots of boats taking advantage of the calm waters.

After walking back and collecting cars, we continued into Deception Pass State Park, and out to the beach, where we enjoyed the sun, surf, beachcombing (yes, I did find a piece of sea glass!) and a great picnic. Maxx wasn't too sure about that roaring water, and neither was Madi, but Hailey climbed the rock that was calling to her, and we got some great pictures.

After Deception Pass we headed back to Everson, where we "re-ran" the dinner from Friday night, as there was so much food left! We enjoyed another relaxing evening outside, which was followed up with the horseback riding that you saw in the previous post.

On Sunday, Lisa and Troy visited Vancouver, which they had never done before. We hope that they had a great time!
