Great to see you back posting regularly. It's like seeing an old friend again. Olympia brought back a few memories. My first brewery tour was at the Olympia brewery back in the early '80's. Beautiful area. Thanks.
My memory of the Olympia Brewery amounts to my time on Guam back in 1969. I was a Loadmaster on Coast Guard cargo planes delivering food and supplies to remote CG radio navigation stations in the South Pacific. They called us the beer and ice cream delivery guys. The beer was always Olympia.
Our family took a tour of the brewery back in the 70s, Funny Oregon and Washington both have a Deschutes river. Thanks for burning up your expensive gas to give us a tour on a beautiful day Brian.😊✌️
Thanks for the tour. Very scenic. I had to chuckle as you mentioned all the things that they say you can't do. One of our radio guys dubbed our state "MN, The State Where Nothing is Allowed".
Thanks for taking the time to put that together... it's been many yhears since I have been in that part of the world... good to see that it's still beautuful. Your video is always good quality.
Good morning Brian, thank you for taking us on this spectacular tour ! It was great to get to see the Salmon in each little stage that they have to travel to get where they’re going ! Please tell Kelly hi & give Hobbs an ear rub. Safe travels & keep smiling !
The brewery got their water from 4 artesian wells located across Capital Blvd. behind the warehouse facility. It didn't come from the river. Enjoyed the tour. I lived there for 16 years. 😊
Thank you Brian. Beautiful video! Enjoyed every moment. Living vicariously through you, as this nomad NZ'er won't make it there, this late in life 😊 💌💌💌 Brian, Kelly and Hobbs 🙋♀️🚐 🌏
@@AdventureVanManI visited Olympia back in the early 2000s and really liked the town I even went kayaking there in that inlet that goes into the town. Filled up my water bottle from those spigots they have around town cool little town. Take care
The salmon channels are called fish ladders. When I'm in that part of the country I like to visit the Hiram Chittenden locks in Ballard area of Seattle, where I watch boats big and small make their way to and from Lake Union and Lake Washington through the locks. There is a fish ladder there also.
Thank you for showing me the area. I live in the Yakima Valley and have never seen this. In my younger years I would go see it myself but I'm too old. Thank You.
Great video, so very relaxing and scenic. The city did a wonderful job with that park by the brewery in Tumwater. The salmon jumping was so interesting, no feet, no firm surface to push of from but a salmon says no problemo.😃✌️
Thank you Brian, I have cousins that live in various areas of Olympia, many that you have shown in this video. One cousin used to work tagging the young salmon. My nana was visiting Tumwater when Mt. St. Helens Erupted back in 1980.. I was never able to visit that part of our country, but thanks to you, I've been able to vicariously visit with your help.. 🤗 It's easy to understand why you do what you do, go where you go... truly blessed.. rock on brother ☮️💚🤗
The brick building was built as Olympia brewing in 1906. I am not aware of it ever being a flour mill. Olympia was always said to be brewed using water from artesian springs not from the river. I am from Olympia although I haven't lived there since '69. I believe the name of the park is pronounced squacksin although the "ck" is relatively soft. At least that is the way I always heard it. The park is named for the local Squaxin tribe. There is an island to the NW of Budd Inlet named Squaxin Island that belongs to the tribe. There used to be a state park on the island accessible only by boat that closed in the 90s. I remember going over there as a kid.
Awesome video! Looks like we have some new places to visit next summer, heading through White pass Thursday, starting to get a little bit too soggy.😎☮️
Hey Brian..that road along the water on the way to the park is where I've overnighted when in Olympia. Nice spot but since it's downhill..lots of people speeding by 🧐🤔 Nice to see the sunshine in your video..I'm staying up North near Everett..been raining a couple of days and looks like the rest of the week 🤪✌️
Thank you for this video, Brian! I recently moved to Washington from the middle of California and I got to visit Brewery Park today because I learned about it from when you posted this video a few weeks ago. Safe travels to you and Kelly. I love seeing Hobbs in your videos now too. It's fun to watch him experience things for the first time, such a good puppy!
I was just at Tumwater Falls. First visit. Got a lot of video of the salmon trying to jump the lower falls. There were a lot of salmon the day we were there.
Thx for the tour of the park 😊. The salmon looked like they need some help with that waterfall 😮. Have a wonderful week Brian ❤️. Kelly too🍁🍁🍁 Enjoy fall. Best time of year. That park that looks like the rain forest is an amazing park to camp in for sure😮!
Born & lived in oly till i was 12. we used to picnic at the falls as a kid and watch fish going up the fish ladder! 2 of my dads brothers worked and retired from the Oly brewery! Now i live out on the coast at Westport and drive Hwy 8 to Olympia couple times a month. this is my home country! very nice!!! no hussle & bussle out here!
Thanks for this video. I live in Washington and I drive through Olympia on the freeway quite often, but I’ve never stopped to explore. It is now on my list of places to see.
Great video! I just read with El Nino, it will rain more in Calif and Arizona and be warmer in Washington. I hope you 3 find nice weather on your travels!
Wow Brian! What a beautiful area. The parks are so well maintained. Just Lovely. I Like the great choices for seafood. How neat to see the Salmon run. Fun ride, thanks for sharing. Hugs for You and Kelly and of course Hobbs, Louise
Still keeping up with #AdventureVanMan! Always happy to see Brian on his adventures! Wow, o haven't seen salmon like that in a river since I was a kid!
Boston Harbor?! Where's Quincy Market, the USS Constitution, Kelly's Roast Beef?! Sorry, New Englander here. I've been to Washington state too. Mostly the Seattle area. I absolutely love the PNW! Peace!
1986 I went to the Capitol. And went inside. Was immediately welcomed at the visitor desk. Wandered about the inside, very pretty. Outside, just across the street, was a nice arboretum. Great views from above of the shoreline you just toured.
I live about 30 miles north of Seattle so it nice to see you in my neck of the woods, sorta. I've been playing tourist here for the past 40 years, lots to see and do. If you have a chance to go north and visit Whidbey Island I would highly recommend Deception pass as an awesome area, crowded in summer but not so bad now. Always enjoy your videos.
I lived in Olympia for two years. This video brought back a lot of good memories. But I never saw salmon like that. Amazing! If you like burgers, check out Eastside Big Tom. It's better than In 'n' Out in my opinion.

The footage of the salmon jumping up the waterfall was amazing!

It's the water and a lot more...
Washington is a great place to wander. Listening to and seeing the water......ahhhh😊
You caught the salmon jumping in the falls! So beautiful!
Awesome, thank you!
Tug Boat Anne's fish and chips for the win!
Away we go! Nice to hear ya say those words again!
Good video. Peace
Glad you have been able to enjoy my hometown during the best time of the year. Washington is a beautiful state if you stay out of the cities!
I used to live in Oly ...five miles from town....seems like 3 lifetimes ago
Coooooool video. Thank you.
🎶 “Oly, Oly-O, it’s the water and a lot more” 🎶
So happy to see your videos and hope you're both doing well!

Sign, sign, everywhere a sign!
So funny!!! You are too young to know that LOL.
Yeah they did have a lot of rules ... that's true
Thanks for taking us along. Those are all beautiful spots. Great to see the fall, and salmon. Like the downtown historical buildings. 🙂👍
Thanks for taking the time to put that together... it's been many yhears since I have been in that part of the world... good to see that it's still beautuful. Your video is always good quality.
Great video! What amazing places you take us to. Thank you very much!

I just added this place to my bucket list. Thanks for sharing ✌️
Great job
Thanks Brian, great video. 😁😁😎😎👍👍
Terrific video Brian, I'm giving it an 9/10. My only complaint is that there just wasnt enough Hobbs.
Been to that brewery in the late 70’s. Olympia beer was the beer of choice for all my friends back in the day. Beautiful area.
Even the salmons don’t want to be part of the system 😂 trying to jump out to avoid being counted… safe travels!
Nice areas to explore. Thanks
Great teenage memories of Oly beer and a few Rainer also😊
ohhhhh i wouldve bought y'all a coffee !!! love seeing my area thru someone elses eyes. LOVE seeing the salmon run. thanks for the video
Thank you for sharing your tour, loved seeing the salmon jumping and what a beautiful place to spend the day! Safe travels for you!

Great video. Some lovely, relaxing footage of some spots i am familiar with from a fresh perspective.
I took the brewery tour in ‘74 when I was stationed at Ft. Lewis. I was only 18 so they wouldn’t let me sample the beer at the end of the tour.😢
I never understand that you can serve your country with your life.. but can’t have a beer. 🤪

Check out Leavenworth, WA if you haven't. Really cool village.
Great to see more videos from you !
Nice tour of the town, thanks,
Happy Trails y'all
Thanks for the video as usual Brian. I love traveling with you as I'm laid with with a foot fracture. Nature, the coming and your new old dog are fun.
Cooking.
I heard when I was a kid that there are Leaches in Capital Lake, that's why no swimming... yikes!
Visited Tumwater and the other places, too, ca two weeks ago during our roadtrip.
Now we are back in Germany and I wish I can come back
Hello Brian thank you for a beautiful tour of Olympia Washington so much memories there.
nice! the pnw is just gorgeous, beautiful. thanks for sharing. continued travel mercies and blessings. 🕊
I have good memories of my visit to Olympia, nice little town
I for one, am so grateful that you have shown at least some of the beauty of this wonderful state. ❤🎉❤
Back in parking only. Never seen that before. What’s the deal with that?
Washington state is on my bucket list. Beautiful part of the country.
I love that drive! It’s very beautiful and peaceful!
1986 I went to the Capitol. And went inside. Was immediately welcomed at the visitor desk. Wandered about the inside, very pretty. Outside, just across the street, was a nice arboretum. Great views from above of the shoreline you just toured.
I live about 30 miles north of Seattle so it nice to see you in my neck of the woods, sorta. I've been playing tourist here for the past 40 years, lots to see and do.

I lived in Olympia for two years. This video brought back a lot of good memories. But I never saw salmon like that. Amazing!
If you like burgers, check out Eastside Big Tom. It's better than In 'n' Out in my opinion.
