Port Townsend

Port Townsend-bound
 
Today, walked back over to the market and had pastries and coffee for breakfast, in preparation for our ferry trip over to Port Townsend.  I had been looking forward to getting back down to the market area and trying more of the food, and then we walked around a bit enjoying the atmosphere while waiting for our ferry.






 Port Townsend is the home of my friend, book producer, and sometimes-agent Lee Ann Chearney lives and works and runs Amaranth Illuminare.  I've been working with Lee Ann for many years but rarely get to see her, especially since she left New York, so I am looking forward to visiting her in her new house with her new dog and her new husband (not all that new, but new to me).  But first, we had to get there.









Ben always thinks we should be pointing at something.



Once in Port Townsend, we visited Lee Ann's beautiful home, her beautiful yellow Lab, Fortune, and walked around the quaint downtown.  We had dinner, and the next day, we visited the Port Townsend Farmer's Market.  Then we had breakfast at Sweet Laurette's and afterwards, wandered around town, perusing bookstores and walking down to the water.  In the late afternoon, we took the ferry back to Seattle.  Lovely day.












This is a very politically correct sort of place.

Mmmmm...
