Port Townsend

Beautiful day
Beautiful day
Port Townsend, Washington. Beautiful buildings from the late 1800s still stand. The town was built in anticipation of a railroad that never came.
Haller Fountain This is actually my second post for this fountain. The last one was taken over a year ago and rendered in B&W. What a difference a year makes.
Quality consignments. And an ever-changing landscape in the gravel lot outside.

Popular places to visit

An inveterate fantasm purportedly haunts this house, or at least one of its windows. When viewed just right from about one spot on the entire planet, the first dark window you see to the right of the central structure appears to reveal a woman sitting in her chair. To the more jaded eye, it would seem that a large flaw in the ancient glass happens to line up very nicely with a large, stuffed chair directly behind the window. No matter. People come from miles around to scare the bejeezus out of themselves by lining up precisely where the apparition can see them and shrieking in delight. However, few of them will actually stay at the "boutique hotel" contained within. Which is probably why the owner is looking to sell it. If you like company, but are not overly fond of money, you might drop by and make him an offer.

Again, this is is really called the Jefferson Museum of Art and History, but, to-may-to, to-mah-to, take your pick. A nice turn-of-the-century brick building with some art deco flourishes which add a certain playfulness to the design.

It’s called the Belmont Hotel on all the travel sites but when you get there, they say through the phone that it’s called Vacasa. This hotel is not open when you peek inside the windows of the hotel and front desk and no one around to assist. We had numerous calls trying to get someone to help us ...
