The motorhome is parked at Millersylvania State Park about 10 miles south of Olympia, Washington. I lived in Olympia from 1980 to 1995 and will visit with old friends while in the area. My scheduled departure date is June 24th.
Mary is at home tending to personal matters…home maintenance, family, friends, rentals, etc.. She has made her flight reservations to meet me July 29th in Bellingham, Washington.
Yesterday I took a walking self-guided tour of the State Capitol Building at Olympia, Washington. To read about the State Capitol Building…click this Wikipedia link…http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_State_Capitol
The two below Google Earth images show the general area. Olympia is located at the most southerly point of Puget Sound on Budd Bay…
As always you may left click upon an image to see an enlarged view and then click once again to see an even larger view…
Here are some of the photos that I took…
The dome as seen from the visitors parking lot. The dome is 287 feet (87 m) high, making it the tallest self-supporting masonry dome in the United States, and fourth tallest in the world…
Approaching the right side of the State Capitol building…
The rear of the building…
Stop here before you get to meet with the Governor at his mansion…
The front of the State Capitol Building…
Some of the decor on the front metal doors…
Some ornate concrete work…
Entering the lobby…
Looking up inside the dome…
A closer look at the chandelier…
The state seal…
As closer look at George…
Look how shiny his nose is. It’s apparently shiny because folks rub it as they go by. I did also…
Looking down at the seal directly below the dome…
A side corridor…
The view from the front steps of the State Capitol Building looks across the street to the Insurance Building…
