Gig Harbor Washington

We've moved to Gig Harbor RV Park. This is a very nice park with big pine trees. I'm surprised that our satellite works here. We're only getting 2 of the 3 satellites, and we're not getting the local channels so I hooked up to the park cable to get those. 
There's a shuttle bus that runs into town and the surrounding area for a dollar a day. We love that and use it all the time.
Our site is nice and long on a terrace.
    This is a nice little harbor on the Puget Sound at the south end.

We had lunch at Tides Tavern on the dock. This is the first place we have both said it would be a nice place to live. But we'd have to hit the lotto to afford it. I would take any of these houses.  
The ferry in Bremerton that goes over to Seattle.
We took a self guided tour of the destroyer, USS Turner Joy 
DD-951. It's right next to the Navel Station in Bremerton, WA. It was in service from 1958 to 1982. It fired the last shot in Vietnam.

One of 3 guns on the ship.
 It had a crew of 275-300 (17 Officers, 260 enlisted). 
It was named after Admiral Charles Turner Joy, a veteran of World War II and the Korean War.
