THE LAST NIGHT AT CLALLAM BAY

As I sit in the still of the night listening to the ocean waves gently washing up onto the beach my thoughts are of the last two weeks here at this beautiful place. There is serenity to be founds upon this shore and in a way I feel a sadness about leaving. This morning we said our goodbyes to our new found friends. They had to leave today. Here they are left to right: Al, Jan Burley, and Ray Burley.

Jan had told us about a beach just down the road that had large starfish. Phil and I decided to check it out. We found some nice treasures. Phil found a ten legged red sunburst starfish. He was in the process of returning a crab to the water when the starfish caught his eye as it rolled with the surf. He waded into the water and after several grabs he caught it. It is a large one and a collectors dream...


As we were heading back up to where the truck was parked we saw three bald eagles. One flew off over the beach while two landed in a tree not far from the truck. So I got a couple of nice shots of them...




 In a few hours we will be on highway 101 headed for the Oregon coast and I wonder what we will find along the way. Whatever happens we will be dancing with the angels.... KEEP ON DANCING!
