Probably "Baby Island" (aka Round Island) in Willapa Bay

Looks like 11th St was one way at the time.

I was born at St Joes in October of that year. In August of this year my son will be born there.

There are definitely fault throughout the region but the main plate where the mega thrust earthquake would be is about 100 miles offshore I believe.

Cascadia megathrust earthquake involving Juan De Fuca plate is a scarier disaster and a higher risk too I believe. There are cities on the coast like Long Beach, WA that will simply disappear. I5 will be out for weeks. They happen about every 300-500 years and it has been 323 years since the last one.

It was like an elevated terrace area that was partially paved, adjacent to the main trail that follows the top of the bluff. There are paved areas all over the park (Dune Peninsula Park)

He was actually blasting music on a bluetooth speaker (a little rude IMO). The only song I recognized was "Night Nurse" by Gregory Isaacs.

I don't know a lot about cameras besides point and click. I was using my sigma 250mm-600mm lens that I have primarily for birding, and this would have been mostly zoomed out so like 300mm I think (unless I am misunderstanding the word "focal length").

Sometimes the native name is spelled Tahoma or Takhoma, but the Puyallup Tribe has clarified the name and preferred spelling -- "Tacoma" like the city.
