We knew that one of the most important things for us to do in southern Washington was to visit Cape Disappointment. The fog horn off the coast was necessary as we hiked to two different and distinct lighthouses. The bar where the Columbia River meets the ocean is known as the "Graveyard of the Pacific" because of its treacherous waterway. Many ships have sunk here. The Coast Guard keeps constant watch and practices many difficult maneuvers in the area.
Cape Disappointment also has Waikiki Beach. This small area had more driftwood than I have seen in all my life. Many shelters and works of art have been built on the beach and we decided to add our own sculpture to the mix. After about 15 minutes, our water horse came to life.
