A Blustery Port Townsend Visit

I intended to push this post out a long time ago, and now it feels like it happened last year. We seems to visit Port Townsend every year in the fall, if we are at home, but it still feels like we haven't seen all the places here. It's always a trick, to balance enjoying our favorites while continuing to discover new ones. I especially like that we usually stay here with additional family. This trip included my parents and the family friends that were the witnesses at our wedding (I think of them as an aunt and uncle). We had to leave before two more aunt and uncle pairs arrived because we said yes to a spontaneous trip to Mexico with a good friend and needed a day to turn around our baggage. This year, the rain kept us inside our trailer more that usual, but it was so relaxing, I don't regret the weather at all.
