It takes a while to get to Lake Quinault if you’re coming from Tacoma. If you’re coming from anywhere, actually.
I’m here for a 2-day leadership training, sponsored by Surfrider, staying here this evening and then driving back tomorrow. After coming around the north end of the peninsula, stopping to see Todd Fischer in Sequim, lunch in Port Angeles, the tight turns of Lake Crescent, Rialto Beach, La Push, sleeping next to the Hoh River, tea in Ruby Beach… I am finally here.
