Where do you go when it's 85 degrees? Pick a stream on the Olympic Peninsula and bushwhack until you find a nice deep swimming hole! That's what I do at least. On Saturday I went to one of my secret little fishing/swimming holes and laid in the sun for a few hours. The water was ice cold but refreshing. On the way back to the truck the reflections of sunlight hitting the foliage on the bank made for some interesting reflections and colors.
