Summertime For Travel


Though summer is only a few days old
there are those who have already started
traveling or about too. 

The next week here  in Western Washington
the temperatures are expected in the mid to 
upper 70s over the next seven days. There
might be a couple days after that heading into
July where there might be rain, however,
July usually is the best month of the year
to vacation in Western Washington.

 Here there are so many places to visit and
enjoy with the weather not being any trouble.
You can begin with the north near Bellingham
all the way to Oregon border. There is Mount
Adams near Bellingham while going south
on interstate five off to the east and south of
Seattle you can see Mt. Rainier. Go further 
south there is Mt. Saint Helens. 

Up in the north and west of Bellingham
there is the San Juan Islands where you can 
take a ferry from Anacortes. You go north
from Seattle, there is signs near Burlington
which is about an hour away. Coming down
from Bellingham it is about thirty minutes
to Burlington. The ferry can be very busy
so going on line to find how long a wait 
to go would be recommended.

If you have some time there is Oak Harbor
a lovely place  as well. Other places in
Western Washington I will mention further.
A lot depends on your interest whether hiking,
viewing the mountains or going on the water.
Depending on your travel time you may have
to visit several times to get in all what you
enjoy. 

You want to spend the time where there
isn't as many people September is a good
time to visit as well.  I say anywhere in
Washington state is good to visit. Oregon
is pretty good to especially if you want to
go along the coast. Lovely places along
highway 101.  From Seattle you can head
south on interstate five near Olympia the
state capital look for signs to highway 101.
As the saying maybe a lot but not enough
time. 

I will share more to Western Washington
for your enjoyment. Happy travels!
