we asked for some bread to feed the animals at the game farm, expected a handful of something like a biscuit. so we were surprised when the folks tossed us an entire loaf of regular bread.

we were told not to stop for these guys, considering their heads wouldn't have even fit through the window - probably bigger than the car door. apparently, they've caused a lot of damage to previous visitors' rides trying to stick their heads in.

first day of camping out on the peninsula. we ended up stopping by this game farm where they had some retired show animals. the waving bears was probably the highlight of that.
hurricane ridge was the next stop. we got a glimpse of the olympic range right before the fog came in and engulfed everything.
we finally got to the camp site, settled in and made dinner. went for a hike to burn it off and ended up at the coast, which was only a couple miles away. after all the log and rock hopping with a 40-some pound camera bag, the walk back seemed a lot longer than it should've been.
Looks like you had fun. I went to that game farm a long time ago. Sweet shot of the yak.. #11 is pretty cool too. How was your firewood supply at camp?
#11 and #18 are really nice shots. I've seen one of those buffalo ram a car that was ahead of me when I was there long ago... busted the driver's side window glass. I don't know what the driver did to piss it off. It looks like you had fun.
