And I just got off the phone with Orion while typing this post... turns out that most of Olympic National Park is better seen in a drive at this time of year, so I could have seen what they're about to see. Oops!
However, since I am enjoying myself in the cafe, they're going to do a relatively short drive to and from the area around Hurricane Ridge Visitors Center while I'll spend a few hours here catching up on news, business, investing, reading, etc. Then they'll come back for me, we'll make our way over to 9 0'clock or so on Olympic National Park (imagine it as a clock), and then we'll find a place to camp out on one of the Washington coast beaches.
