so so pretty here

Less words, more photos...because it is just so beautiful here, and I am having a fabulous time :-)

Driving west towards the ferry.....

Preparing to dock in Port Townsend....

A flight of 1 oz samplers at the Port Townsend Brewing Company....

A deer on the lawn of Bed & Breakfast in a quiet neighborhood....

Okay.  A few words.
The deer was so still, we thought he or she might have been a victim of taxidermy!  For almost a full minute we sat there watching, and there was not a twitch!  Then verrrry slowly, one ear slowwwwly rotated.  I even wondered for a moment if someone inside the B&B was sitting in there with a remote control operating it! hahahaha 
(but he/she was real)

A shot of a tall ship taken from Uptown....

And one of the many many MANY little churches around here.....

So, I am not sure if I have mentioned this or not!
The real reason for this road trip is that I am here in Port Townsend for a spinning retreat with Judith MacKenzie, specifically for people who have Hansencraft miniSpinners (and I am a happy keeper of one).  

Tonight was the meet-n-greet at the hotel, followed by Kevin (Mr Hansencraft himself) demonstrating care and maintenance.

After the evening gathering, TheMIG and I took a walk together along the waterfront and caught the sunset.

Tomorrow TheMIG goes exploring, and I begin 2 full days of spinning and learning! :-)
