Today was wet and a bit cool but some sun broke through. The picture was taken just up from Dungeness on the Strait of Juan de Fuca. Canada can be seen across the strait from this location. The sandy headland was named New Dungeness by George Vancouver in 1792 because of the resemblance to Dungeness in Britain. There is a long sand spit (the longest in North America) with a lighthouse at the end just up the coast from here. Beautiful, and well worth a visit.
