Camping & Geocaching by beautiful Lake Cushman.

We were looking for a quiet place to spend the 4th. of July.  We decided to stay at Big Creek Campground by Lake Cushman.  That turned out to be a great choice.  It's a beautiful, well maintained county campground.  It's one of our favorites. We spent five wonderful days there.

The area is breathtakingly beautiful.

We heard very few fireworks. It was nice and quiet.  We enjoyed it.

If we ever decide to sell our house and move, this is the area we would like to go to.  That my happen after retirement.
A pretty little waterfall on the way up to Mt. Eleanor.  There are a couple of geocaches on the hiking trail up to Mt. Eleanor we had hoped to find that day. Unfortunately, the trail is currently closed due to aggressive Mountain Goats.  The goats have approached & challenged hikers.  They can be very dangerous.  You can drive up, but posted signs warn people not to hike up.  
We were visiting with Mart Twain while finding a geocache at the Hoodsport Timberland Library.  It's a beautiful little library.
Geocaching -- Did we find it????
There it is.
Britt & Laya are all tired out after a long day of geocaching.  They live too cache.
We spent the week, geocaching, reading, garage saling & we visited the cute little town of Hoodsport.

Our camping cats think the best part of our trip was bird watching.
Laya is fairly new to the whole camping & geocaching thing, but she loves every minute of it, including her own camping chair.

I hope everyone had a happy & safe 4th. of July.

Thanks for stopping by.
