The Hawaiian Chieftain has it’s home port in Kamakahonu, but is in Port Townsend, available for day cruises. I thought it was a nice little boat, worth taking photos of. (no, I haven’t had a ride aboard)
The Hawaiian Chieftain
Views from the Downtown Waterfront
In the photo above, please note the band of low cloud (fog) along the shore of Whidbey Island across Puget Sound from the Port Townsend waterfront. We had the fog earlier, but it had burned off hours ago. I was surprised there was still some left across the way. The snowy peak is Mt Baker, the northern most of the Cascade volcanoes.
Below the new walkway on the top of the new breakwater at Hudson Point Marina, a great spot to watch the ferry come and go.
Cold Weather Sipping
The Port Townsend Vineyard’s tasting room in right along the waterfront in downtown PT. Besides a very nice interior space, there is an excellent patio that is enjoyed year round (by those souls brave enough). When the sun comes out in the middle of winter, bundling up around a fire with a nice glass of wine is enjoyed by many.
Cloudscape
This was taken from the waterfront at Port Townsend, looking south to the northeast corner of the Olympic Mountains. A brief break in the shower activity that day. The ferry runs across Puget Sound to Whidbey Island and the Coupeville landing.

Unsettled Weather
This is the waterfront at Port Townsend. The weather had been changing all day … one of those times when if you don’t like the weather, just wait a few minutes. I was walking around the waterfront and thought these clouds were interesting.
