Orcas Island 2015

Last week we took our annual trip to Orcas Island.  Since we had a reservation for a later ferry, we decided to take a side trip to Deception Pass State Park.  Why haven't we done this before?!  Deception Pass is less than 10 miles from Anacortes.  So if you have a later ferry and looking for something to do - go to Deception Pass!


 












Deception Pass State Park is more than just the bridge!


 Views from the ferry never get old.

There's no wi-fi at our place on Orcas Island.  So instead of being tied to a device (which I admit I catch myself doing far too often throughout the day) we spend a lot of our time outside, especially on the beach. 











The view from our deck, where we sleep under the stars. 

We took a day trip to San Juan Island for lunch and some shopping.  
Inter-island hopping is free for walk-ons. 




Hike up Turtleback Mountain, Orcas Island


And one more campfire on our last night with an amazing sunset. 










Thanks for being so good to us, Orcas Island!
