A three-day weekend and it’s back to work, school, and summer’s in the rear-view mirror. But, are we just too willing to let an arbitrary date lower the curtain on summer?
Our Best Beach This Month:
South Whidbey Harbor at Langley
The recently expanded South Whidbey Harbor at Langley, just downhill from downtown Langley, is both a great port of call for boaters and a great beach.
A Beautiful Commute
Riding the Clinton-Mukilteo ferry is old hat for many, but for those who stop to look, they’ll get a wonderful reminder of how beautiful this place is.
Our Best Beach This Month:
North Beach
North Beach is part of the expansive beach on the south side of Deception Pass west of the bridge. It’s scenic, accessible, and very popular.
Island Farmers Markets
It’s this time of year when you see the culture of our area begin to show, peeking out like the sun through a hole in an otherwise gray sky.
The One That Got Away
With orca here year-round and gray whales visiting each spring, many of us take to boats for a memorable day, even if the camera we brought along wasn’t cooperating.
Only Humbled
I put this first on our Facebook page, but I wanted to share these thoughts about the people around Oso here, as well. And, I wanted to encourage you to plan a visit there when the time is right.
A Beach to Myself
What’s it like having a beach all to yourself? When you spend time mid-week on beaches on Whidbey and Camano, you find out.
The Deception at Deception Pass
How could early explorers be deceived that this sea canyon was the mouth of a river? It’s easy to understand when you take the time to watch and listen.
Art in a Sandbox?
Public art flourishes on Whidbey and Camano islands. From the traditional wood carving welcome sign greeting people just getting off the ferry to the sculpture park’s visual treats, there are plenty of locally-produced visual treats that compete with those made by mother nature.
