Road Trip WA: To Olympia and Beyond

Road Trip WA: To Olympia and Beyond

A couple of years ago I posted a summer bus transit trek to Olympia Washington where I visited the state capitol and walked around downtown.
You can see it here

Well, the very next day (a hot August Friday) I went on a rental car road trip back through Olympia and beyond.
Here are scenes on this FREE road trip from mSeattle to you.
Hope you enjoy and re-live it at any time. Point and Shoot style... unless I throw in some DSLRs.

Scenes from I-5, south of Tacoma

I lost photos of the state capitol from the freeway in Olympia after dropping a portable hard drive. Anyway, I visited the lovely The Evergreen State College campus a ways away from downtown to take some updated photos and eat lunch.

Evergreen's buildings are mostly concrete to balance being in the middle of all those woods. I don't know. I'm probably making stuff up.

Probably is very refreshing on the cloudy rainy days.

So I put my little bike in the truck and headed off to get some drive-by Olympia neighborhood pictures (lost).




I hit the road again going west through some hills.












Eventually: Montesano, WA - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Montesano,_Washington

County courthouse. Cute little town. Bunch of photos lost (I should-a sued).



Got back on the road and went west some more
