Mile 4649, Ocean Park, Washington (local miles only). One more cloudless day, a little bit warmer. We spent the day walking around Leadbetter Point State Park and the beach at the north end of the Long Beach peninsula. On the beach we were virtually alone with the plovers, hundreds of them, and seagulls and vultures picking over the carcass of a dead seal. Went back to the house and finally got some laundry done.
