Hartstene Island

Just back from a weekend at Harstene Island at the southern end of Puget Sound. A couple that I know has built a house on the island and had invited several people to join them for the weekend. I got to stay in the 'crow's nest' - a comfortable alcove at the top of the square column you see here on one side of the house.



This side of the house faces the water...

and here's a view of the water...

at the water's edge looking west toward the Olympics....
(a close up of the Olympics...)
and to the east...
