Spring on Whdibey

It seems spring has finally arrived.

As the snow disappears from Mt. Baker the garden tools come out and the boat is made ready. The sun is out and we are basking in it.

Cap Sante, Anacortes, WA

Last weekend I went to Anacortes on Fidalgo Island. Cap Sante is a rise above the marina. Here is a panorama of the view to the east. Mt. Baker is in the distance with Fidalgo Bay in the foreground. At the right is March Point with a refinery.

Deception Pass Bridge

At the north end of Whidbey Island is the Deception Pass Bridge, connecting Whidbey to Fidalgo Island. It is one of the most visited state parks in Washington State.

Snowy Mt. Baker

Mt. Baker still has a full coat of snow as it overlooks Oak Harbor. The Roller Barn at lower left is an original from farming days. I remember roller skating parties in the 50s. Now it is used for community youth activities.
