Lunch break and oyster shooters

Great way to spend a birthday in 2020. Guide and company very conscientious about cleaning, masks, etc in these time. Gorgeous part of Hood Canal with beautiful scenery to see.

"Basecamp" -- the Hood Canal Adventures storefront where you check in for the class. There's also a cute gift shop inside.

My husband and I and two friends took a Saturday afternoon class at Hood Canal Adventures called "Foraged Food Cooking Class - Stinging Nettle Pesto." It was taught by their foraged food chef, Nancy Smith, with Andrea as an assistant and we all loved it. You meet at their storefront called Basecamp, check in, make introductions, and drive a short distance to a place where they show you how to safely harvest stinging nettle in the wild. (If you don't bring sturdy enough gloves, they provide some.) After that you return to the kitchen next to the storefront and they demonstrate how to make a pesto with the stinging nettle leaves. At the end you get to take home a small jar or two. I loved Nancy's teaching style and everyone's sense of humor. I plan on signing up for more of these classes in the future. I would say that the class is probably less targeted to kids, since there is a fair amount of observing instead of hands-on participation -- which absolutely was NOT a problem for me. Christina, the owner of Hood Canal Adventures, also joined the class and she had a really great suggestion to visit a waterfall up the road. Visiting the waterfall on the way out was the perfect end to the day and I'm so glad she shared that info with us.

Great submarine. Only sinks when you want it to and seldom leaks. Great place to hang out for LGBTQ…read morefolks

Due to the generosity of Kevin A, a number of yelpers were able to tour the USS Nebraska stationed…read moreBangor Navy Base. The USS Nebraska's keel was laid down in May 26, 1987 ; it was launched on August 15, 1992 and commissioned on July 10, 1993. The sub is home to 1 of two crews for a typical deterrent mission under the MAD strategy for an average of 77 days. Each crew consists of ~17 officers, ~15 petty officers and ~122 enlisted men. The USS Nebraska has completed 18 deterrent missions as of September of 2010. This is the second Navy Ship to honor the State of Nebraska. Duty rotation for the crew is 18 hours with 6 hours at the primary duty station, ~6 hours of other duties. However, officers, however, typically are on for 14 hours or longer. This is the routine for the entire tour of duty. Aside from 24 Trident Ballistic missiles complete with MIRVs (Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicles), the sub features 4 forward torpedo tubes. 4 of the 18 Ohio class submarines are designed SSGNs and are equipped with cruise missiles instead of Trident Missiles. The tour allowed us to see the silos and torpedo bay including the control rooms for each. We also the Mess, the Ward room, the Petty Officers room, the berths of various personal and the bathrooms. The Control center and sonar rooms as well as misc machine rooms were part of the tour. The only areas pretty much off-limits to the friends and families touring the Nebraska was the engine room, nuclear reactor room and sail. We were treated to lunch which was 2 star food with 5 star service. During deployment, the kitchen is active 24/7 and the lunch we were served seemed to reflect what was served on board Kudos to the men (and soon woman) who go on watch on this sub.
