Camping to make the ferry and the ride to Victoria

More catching up…this is from New Year’s Eve

As we drove up to Washington, the thought occurred to us to go to Port Angelis and take the Blackball ferry…so that’s exactly what we did…with an overnight at Elwah Dam RV park…we have to go back there…such a nice place with good hiking trails nearby.

Elwah - campground sign

They had a beautiful sign and once inside they even had a bird that could talk and get upset if someone did something wrong… named Romeo.

Elwah - Forest and green

For some reason, I find the moss covered trees so very interesting.

This was the little space our rig fit into.

Elwah - More green forest

The branches are beautiful covered in green. We hadn’t seen this type of thing for quite a while.

We checked the weather….and apparently it was the same all over the USA…gave me a chuckle.

We arrived early enough to be able to reach the campground in daylight.

Finally parked in Fort Victoria RV Park a short bus ride from downtown Victoria. Next we start to explore and visit old friends.
