LAUNDRY DAY & RAINBOW CANYON TRAIL

Laundry and Grocery and Local Yarn Shop Day in Port Townsend, which is actually about 35 miles from where we are camping, but it's where the Laundromat, Grocery Store, and LYS are.
Great laundromat (and attached car wash, if needed) in Port Townsend! And right next door was a shop that sold homemade doughnuts - we finished our first doughnuts before we even got back to the laundromat, and returned for seconds. Delicious! Then, a quick hop into the two (!!) local yarn shops in Port Townsend: Bazaar Girls Yarn and Diva Yarns; I got away with only a few skeins of yarn to find room for in the Chinook. On the way back to the campground, we hiked the Rainbow Canyon Trail, a short, but sweet (and short, but steep) one mile trail that begins at the back of the closed/abandoned Rainbow campground and takes you down to the Big Quilcene River. There is a small waterfall to view, about two-thirds of the way down to the river.
Late afternoon hike, at about 4 p.m., and the sun was hitting the leaves beautifully! It was a gorgeous day!
The falls were about 20 feet
