Cranberry Festival in Grayland, WA

We went to the 2015 Cranberry Festival in Grayland, WA.  

We drove up to Westport next town from Grayland on Friday and it started storming about an hour out of Westport. It stormed all night (wind and rain). It was the first coastal storms we've ever experienced. It was of all things, left over tropical depression Nora out of Hawaii.

It was still storming on Sat for the Cranberry Festival in Grayland. Somehow, it didn't seem to slow anyone down. Sort of felt like childhood again running in and out of the rain.

We found our way to the Cranberry Museum (Furford Museum) and learned all about cranberries! Until then, cranberries were just something that came as cranberry juice or craisins.
