October 2-3. 2009 – The Hood Canal and Oyster Fest

On Friday (2nd), we woke to sunshine – :-)))) and decided to take a ride to the the Olympic National Forest and have lunch at Lake Cushman.  Well, when we got there, the park was closed for the season – :-(.  So off to the scenic Hood Canal we went – lots of pull offs and picnic areas.

What a beautiful area.

On Saturday, we made our way to Shelton and their annual OysterFest!  Wow! Oysters, raw, baked, broiled, fried, barbequed and more.  And the sad part for me is that I don’t like oysters but they also had some great grilled salmon – can you tell we ate our way thru the festival – LOL!!!

They also had some really neat radio controlled boats:
