There is a northbound and southbound rest stop with similar facilities which include restrooms and park-like areas to stretch. There is parking not only for cars, but also for trailers and RVs. And there is signage that you can stay for up to 8 hours which makes it a nice quiet stop to take a nap before continuing your drive. The only improvement I see would be having some vending machines or a convenience store at the rest area. Other than that, this is a pretty good place to stop for a bathroom break to and from Canada, before getting back on I-5.

It is located just past the Deer Park Loop interchange. There are a number of small restroom buildings with both male and female restrooms. The toilets themselves are pit toilets, no running water here so make sure to have some hand sanitizer (I also carry toilet paper in the trunk of my car just in case). There is small vehicle, large vehicle (for example semi-trucks), and vehicle with trailer parking available. A large grassy lawn stretches out behind the restrooms, a good place to take a short walk and stretch one's legs. Informational signs are also posted at this rest area. One of the signs provides context on how the Olympic Mountains got their name. Another contains a map of the Northern Olympic Peninsula with things such as camping, ranger stations, and lighthouses marked on the map. A great place to stop for a rest and get one's bearings before continuing on one's way.

Today, Wednesday 2 August 2023, I discovered a new appreciation for its placement on I-5 in regards to heading east to Enumclaw following visiting the rest area, the turn for Enumclaw (Highway 18) was the next exit once I merged back onto the interstate from the rest area. There are two smaller restroom buildings, vending machines, designated parking areas per vehicle type, and grassy area(s) with picnic tables. The restrooms were busy and a little less clean than I have experienced in the past, but nothing appalling. I was running low on water, so I tried two of the water fountains at one of the restroom buildings and found neither worked. Going to the second restroom building, I found working water fountain(s) with water that did not have a funky taste. While typically busy, people utilizing the rest area have tended to be mindful in my experience(s).

I want to reach out to anyone that is thinking about going to Angel Of The Winds Casino…read more I recently had a major loss of approximately $20,000 at this casino and part of the reason that I lost the 20,000 was because the casino did not provide fair gambling to me as the player. I was threatened, intimidated, insulted, and verbally harassed by another player at the Baccarat table. Apparently, it was OK with Angel Of The Winds Casino because no security was called and the player was allowed to continue playing. This happened back in September 14 the weekend of my wife's birthday. I have been trying to get them to make this right and give me my money back because what they did was not following their own rules. I have had multiple meetings with the Stillaguamish tribal gaming commission, and they have decided that everything was legal that happened while I was gambling. What they don't know, is that giving money to another player a $500 bet is not accurate reporting and the Stillaguamish gaming commission is responsible for accurate reporting. Angel of the Winds has nice staff working there but the upper management seems to be corrupt. They don't want to give you there contact information and they lie to you about having a meeting to discuss the issues that I have. I have no faith in the Gaming Commission there either. The person I have been dealing with on this is not aware that his job is to make sure that customers get a fair gaming experience. He told me his job is to help protect the casino and players. His job is to make sure that there is fair play to all the players, not to cover for the casino screwing over individuals. I will post more on this but hopefully for now it will help people to realize that you need to be very careful if you decide to play at this establishment!

Ferghal and Lola are zonked out and I hate to stop but I *gotta go*. As I make my way to the right side of the highway, the pups perk up and breathe their doggie breath down my neck . Much meefing and wild tail wagging. Pups loves them a road trip --- because that means Rest Areas!! They are dogs --- they are easily pleased. First order of business --- figuring out where the hell I am. I drove past Chehalis, but the rest stop sign *says* Chelhalis. I know that's wrong, but deep down I wonder if maybe I'm driving on some sorta road to hell and I've been unknowlingly driving in the Chehalis vortex --- because if there is such a thing --- it's not in middle of the ocean near Bermuda, No, no, no , it's here. In Chehalis. The place people dream of leaving. I could hardly stand staying long enough to pee. Which brings me to the second order of business: Clean bathrooms (but no toilet seat covers --- that just makes me cranky), free coffee, stale store bought cookies (some road stops have ladies who make cookies, this rest stop was staffed by a couple of retired truckers who found the cookies behind the seat in the rig). Now for the third order of business: c'mon pups... do your bidniss! Holy crap! I mean literally... Holy. Crap. There is dog poop everywhere. Ooooooh geeeeeez. I guess those "pick up after your pooch please" signs you see some places really help --- and if you're not gonna have toilet seat covers --- how 'bout some POOP BAGS!? YES I AM YELLING HERE. It coulda been a nice rest stop too --- couple of tables under the trees. Nice wide paths to walk around. It could have been so nice but for well, the poo. Hey! Look - they have WiFi!! Nevermind. Registration won't work --- I don't think I like this rest stop, they don't even have vending machines. Time to toutle on down the highway.

While at Seward Park we decided to visit this Center. It's a welcoming space and open to the public. When we walked in we were greeted by an employee who mentioned that we could walk through the building, and recommended for us to check out the library. In the community room, there was a class being taught on emergency procedures for the wilderness. Very cool they offer classes and events here! The building is a mix of public and private space, so for the public areas, it's easy to go through it within an hour or so. The other rooms that are closed off are used for private offices and such. But I would encourage you to check out the library, which is the largest public room in the center. You can tell the space for the library was the sitting room for when the building's original use of when The Redfield Family lived upstairs. The bottom portion of the building was used as a concession stand back in the day. But the library now invites guests to check out the different books on wildlife, birds, conservation, travel, and anything else having to do with the great outdoors. Glad to have visited this historical building and learned about the Audubon Center's work. I would also suggest taking children here, as there were plenty of books for kids in the library, as well as taxidermy of birds that may be intriguing to them. The gift shop is mostly items suitable for children, too.
