Mora Campground Olympic National Park Forks, Washington

Mileage:  49,958

It rained from dinnertime yesterday through the night and into the morning.  I wasn’t even sure I wanted to get out of bed…much less move the RV.  As we had our coffee the skies began to blue and we were on our way.

Mora Campground wasn’t a far drive.  This campground is a little older and not necessarily designed for RV’s of our size, but we found a nice site and settled in.

We went for a drive to Rialto Beach.  Some sand and lots of rocks.  There was a ridge that you could walk on to the sand spit.  The going was rocky and covered with very large driftwood.

Tim made his way right up.  I picked my way and navigated more slowly.  Suddenly I was at this impasse…all by myself.

I wasn’t sure that I should try it so I sat on a log and watched the ocean.

Tim is way out on the spit.

Tim up on the ridge.

Tim caught me running from a wave.  I had been looking for shiny pebbles…I did NOT get wet!

The town of La Push across the water.

We made our way back to the car and drove to La Push.  This little town sits on the mouth of the Sol Duc River.  There was a restaurant on the water and we stopped for lunch.  We watched the gulls and some seals cavorting and feeding.

The rest of the afternoon was damp and dark here in the big trees.  A good day to read and relax.
