What's the weather going to be like in late April?
Fairly mild - we usually are in the mid-50s with some sprinkles during that time of the year. But we could also be in a heat wave. Bring layers especially as Fort Worden is on the bluff above the ocean.
Why did you pick Fort Worden?
We love it - we love the old school military vibe, we love the Victorian era radiators, we love the walking paths in the forest and along the beach. And if you've ever seen Kelley's Camp Kelso content, then you know it's been a large part of her life for decades.
