On the way to Scenic Beach State Park Campground, this view near Seabeck was pretty scenic indeed. See the tiny boats in the distance?

From my photo archives, a scenic summer sunset down at the waterfront in Seattle, with the Olympic Mountains across the water. The scene is so peaceful but yet so lively, to me.
