Back in the game, the adventuring game that is.

Hello Blog Pals,
I rested and "found' Little Fox at the helm of the blog.  I rested a few weeks back at home and then decided it was time to wrangle my roommates and take them on a trip.  No, we are not camping in January (that would be ridiculous). However, we did a stop at this campground to do a hike.
The river is in great shape. 

The falls look pretty darn good too. 
Even though it was a short hike this fox is getting hungry.  Time to head into town.  The nearest town was Port Townsend, Washington.  It's a nice little town, lots of old buildings and places to explore. 
Port Townsend was suited to be the next big city sometime in the late 19th century.  Most ships from Asia on the way to Seattle stopped in Port Townsend to pay taxes, give the sailors a break and restock supplies.  Taxes, sailors, and lots of businesses that cater to sailors makes Port Townsend an ultimate destination a 130 years or so ago.  Things were looking great, then a depression hit the US, the the railroad realized how hard and expensive it was to get trains to the city, and realized Seattle had a good seaport and was a lot easier to send train tracks to so Seattle became the next big thing.  

The customs house is in great shape.  Not bad for a building from 1893.
They have a nice downtown decorated.  Perhaps this could be my next Christmas card photo?
Ferries from Whidbey Island serve the city.
Back to lunch.  I bet if I hang out here I might get a lunch to my suiting.  
So, how does one go about joining the salmon club?
