La Push, Washington

I have a list below of memes I am joining for this week. They are all fun memes to participate in...I hope you can join in with the fun  and check out some of the participating posts. Special thanks to all the wonderful host and their memes.

I am sharing more images from our trip to Washington State on this day we left Port Angeles and headed to the resort on the coast at La Push, Washington.


With time to spare before checking into our next hotel, we stopped at the Hoh Rainforest. We had time for another walk on the trail before going to the Quiluette Ocean Resort near La Push Washington.
Above some scenes from the morning of Oct 6th, the sunrise, top right are the Ring-necked Ducks, Male Elk walking down the road, fall colors and leaves, Varied Thrush and bottom left a Sparrow.


 One of my favorite birds from Washington the Varied Thrush..


Neat looking tree and moss seen at the Hoh Rainforest, Olympic National Park. The ferns growing in the moss on the tree were pretty.


Our Quiluete Oceanside Resort room at the 1st beach in La Push. We stayed in one of the motel rooms, they also have cabins and the full service RV parks.


The view of 1st beach from our balcony. Olympic National Park on the Pacific Ocean has the three beaches named 1st, 2nd and 3rd beaches along with the Rialto and Ruby beaches.


Above our some of the birds ( Black Turnstone, Belted Kingfisher, Bald Eagle)  I saw from our table at the River Side restaurant which is also owned and operated by the Quiluete Tribe. I hope you enjoyed my post and images. As always I appreciate your visits and nice comments. Thank you! Have a happy day and new week ahead!

  37. You always show us beautiful natures. They are all stunning and the ferns in the third photo especially captures my eyes.

    ReplyDelete
  38. You saw some pretty birds, Eileen, out here in the Pacific Northwest. The beaches with those big rocks look vast and open. I hope you enjoyed your trip out here.

    ReplyDelete
  39. Love the beautiful colors of the sky in the first photo. It was also awesome to see the elk. I've never seen a varied thrush to my knowledge, neat bird! The moss is beautiful, and your photos of the beach really make me miss the ocean!

    ReplyDelete
  40. The tree full of moss and ferns looks so magical --like a fairy tree! You had a nice room so close to the coast--it must have been lovely to hear the ocean, walk along the beach and see so many birds, Eileen.

    ReplyDelete
  41. Wow - fabulous shots! Love that first colourful collage.

    ReplyDelete
  42. Those coastal elk are fabulous!
    I've always wanted to go to Olympic National Park.. mossy trees and ferns are some of my favorite things. Looks like a wonderful trip!

  46. Hi Eileen, I don't think I have ever been up that far on the coast other than British Columbia and Alaska. I have several cousins up in Washington and Oregon so a trip West may include a visit there at some point in the future perhaps. The Elk are magnificent! Great series of photos. Have a wonderful day tomorrow!

    ReplyDelete
  47. I LOVE that one of the moss in the tree. I would love to see that for myself. And wonderful views otherwise, too. Love that varied Thrush, too.

    ReplyDelete
  48. At a quick glance the thrush looks like a robin Eileen, I'll have to keep an eye out for them.

    ReplyDelete
  49. Love it! I am a bit obsessed with sea stacks and arches. I would love to contemplate these. I have a friend whose brother lives in Seattle. Every time they visit, they to a road trip to La Push and the Olympic Peninsula.

    ReplyDelete
  50. A wonderful place to visit! The view of the ocean reminds me of our vacation in Cannon Beach, Oregon. Such a lovely and interesting formations you find out there. Nice clean resort too! Enjoy your evening Eileen.

  55. Another great post from your trip. Enjoyable looking at new birds, the rock formations are always so interesting out that way and your hotel room looks very nice. Happy day to you Eileen.

  56. Hi Eileen, I am loving your posts on your visit to Washington State. I still find it fascinating that one of my blogging friends came all the way out here from Maryland to enjoy some of the Pacific Northwest offerings. I wonder if this was your first trip to Washington? You got some great photos and visited some excellent spots. Over the last week or so we had some stormy weather with high waves over on the Ocean. There was lots of snowfall on Hurricane Ridge too! Some people lost power in Seattle yesterday due to the high winds. All seems back to normal this morning. Have a great day!
