This weekend State Parks were free, so on the suggestion of a friend, my ladyfriend and I took an adventure up to Fort Flagler.

My friend makes fun of me for always having flashlights, even during the day. Well, look who's prepared to explore abandoned bunkers.

Part of the Triangle of Death. I liked the stories about them blowing out the windows in town from the mortars.

Fort Casey on Whidbey Island was nice.

Here's a 10" gun like at Fort Casey.

Some very nice photos there.

Reminds me that I haven't taken the kids to Fort Casey this year. They love running around and climbing on the bunkers.

If you're in to that stuff you may wish to consider joining Coast Defense Study Group (CDSG).

Or at least visiting their site:
