Guillemot Cove Preserve

The view from Guillemot Cove across the Hood Canal to the Olympics, and The Brothers peaks.

We went in search of close-at-hand adventure today and ultimately decided to visit a place that I hiked with my dear friend Molly Pendlebury back when Sam was a baby (precise date of hike is 4/11/2005!). Sam was 2 1/2 months old. I remembered liking that hike, and I enjoyed it just the same this time. In fact, we got to explore quite a bit more of the 184 acre preserve. It was a sunny day, and peaceful. We finished up with some dinner at Hales Ales in Silverdale, forgetting it was St. Patrick’s Day. Enjoy these pictures. Another busy week about to start!

Very very large maple tree on the Maple Trail. Incredible!

 

The "Stump House" which is a burned out cedar stump with a roof on top. It is said that someone lived in here during the Great Depression.

    AMAZING! Your first trip there was on my birthday. I’m so glad you got to visit it again! Boy, the kids are soooo big.
