We also visited Gray's Harbor Lighthouse in Westport--the tallest lighthouse in Washington. We got a passport book put out by the U.S. Lighthouse Society. We got our books stamped at the lighthouse and at the maritime museum that has a fresnel light on display that used to be in the lighthouse on Destruction Island (isn't that a great name?). Once we get stamps from 60 lighthouses, the society will verify the book and send us a patch that says, "I have seen the light!" We are on a lighthouse hunt now. (Janice, you have a lighthouse down there, right? That needs to go on our agenda!)
Gloria just loves the beach, and running in the sand is certainly good for us all, so we walked a dunes trail in Westport, around the jetty at Ocean Shores and with the dogs to the beach just beyond our campground. It was the dogs' first time on the beach, and they went crazy for all the smells! They were ready to go crabbing. There's a sand castle competition here this weekend and a pirate festival in Westport, so I don't think we'll be able to leave right away!
Keep leaving the comments! We love to see who's following along with us.

Just so you know, and not to brag, but the largest sandcastle competition in the U.S. takes place each year here in San Diego at Imperial Beach and will be held this year July 27 to 29. No pressure, though, Trailer Mama.
