Today was another sunny day in Hoquiam WA and we had some geo-caches loaded, so we went south and west to Westport. We stopped at three state parks and our main goal was to get to Westport. It's right on the ocean, and your typical seaboard town. We found two lighthouses, one was old (1898) and is Washington's tallest lighthouse at 107' tall. It is the west coast's third tallest lighthouse. The other lighthouse is the modern construction and it just doesn't have the character that the old ones have. We drove to the ocean while in Westport and the parking lot was nearly full. We wondered what was going on, and when we reached the top of the sand dunes, we could see a pretty good surf and a lot of surfers riding the waves! Today we found 14 caches and two DNF's. We think one of them has been muggled as 5 people before us couldn't find it, either. We reached 1301 caches found so far to date. Our weather is hovering in the 60's for a high and in the 40's at night. We'll take it!
This one is for you, Barb! 107 feet tall
