Can you guess who picked this town as a stop?
Gig Harbor is a quaint little town surrounding the water, very much like Charlevoix or Harbor Springs with the rolling hills and homes of Walloon. It is on the Olympic Peninsula, across Puget Sound from Seattle. Logging, fishing, crabbing and boat building have been a way of life here for many generations.
We took a stroll through small, hilly town, and expected to find t-shirts, fudge and ice cream…and would have bought some had we found them — a taste of home. But instead we discoverd “light-up crosswalks,” and a very majestic Mount Ranier glowing with the setting sun.
