Memories of Olga...our first year living back on Orcas

 This was the view I liked the most when we lived at the resort....
this was at the beginning when it seemed that we would be living here for a long time.....

This was where we lived the first year,

 it was what you would call EXTREMELY cozy!

 But we survived our first year & the winter storms,

even when we had to put towels in front of the door

 to soak up the water being blown in when we had strong windstorms.

Rough time.

See how far up the beach the waves came!

That was why we had the towels in front of our door!

Strong winds!

Here are some of my favorite views of Olga

Olga Artworks and Cafe Olga

I enjoyed coming here

Cool birdhouse

Sweet vegetable stand

The Post Office

My favorite pottery place

We had some great lunches here.

Mike remembers sitting on the steps of the Olga store

eating an ice cream cone when he was a little boy.

Olga is a unique place.

Orcas Island holds many special memories and great friends for us!!
