I just love camping, but camping in the San Juan Islands beats it all.
I was lucky enough to go there quite a bit growing up because my grandparents have lived there since I was 10. This year my extended family all met at the San Juan County Park and spent 5 days camping.
Fun quick re-cap of our trip:
My son and his boy cousins, a few feet away from our campsite. Many times you can catch a pod of Orca Whales just swimming along this view!
The sunsets were BEAUTIFUL!
I love this picture of my grandpa (Opa) My kids’ Great grandpa!
Buoys on my grandparents waterfront property in Wescott Bay (near Roche Harbor) – I am such a sucker for texture. If he would let me, I would take these home and put them in my house. I don’t know where but I’d find a place. BTW, those are barnacles not bird poop on the top of the buoys. (at least I think)
My oldest kayaking in the ocean bay. (or at least walking her kayak.....) It's such a fun area to paddle board, kayak or paddle boat!
My youngest “playing” with the captured dungeness crab. (yes, they were alive, I probably should have been watching her hand near the pincher's instead of delighting myself in picture taking!) Just use some clams as bait, set out your pots and get yourself a bunch of them! (make sure to get a license first!)
Last but not least, my middle child, my only BOY jumping the rocks. (maybe it’s a good thing I only have one boy, they tend to make your heart skip a beat! He did make it to the other side for those who are wondering!)
Thanks for letting me show you our trip! I love the summer, hope you're having a great one.
