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.
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. 😊
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.
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".
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.😊✌️
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 !
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
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 ☮️💚🤗
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.😎☮️
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!
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!
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 🤪✌️
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.
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.
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.
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!
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😮!
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
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.
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!
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!
Appreciate this type video as it's more of what I've not seen. I've been to/ thru WA many times mostly on duty so not much touring around. Also lived in Vancouver 1989/91 too much work and rain to suit an old SW gal. Have you been to Eastern WA ? Clarkston area? Chief Timothy state Park in the Snake River?. I was camp host there many years ago - beautiful area. I know its not normally you guys type camping- mine neither as a rule but was good job for me at that time. That type work all I we'd me to tour t by e USA Canada and spend 2 summers in AK. Glorious way for a disabled person to vacation. Looking forward to your next adventure so we can ride along. Happy Trails!
Love how the way you vlog. Just chill. Thanks for stopping by at Tumwater falls it's nice and lots of salmon. So many lush greens in WA, indeed The Evergreen. Beautiful state. Impressive Olympia btw
The footage of the salmon jumping up the waterfall was amazing!
Awesome, thank you!

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
I just added this place to my bucket list. Thanks for sharing ✌️
Welcome back to Oly!
🎶 “Oly, Oly-O, it’s the water and a lot more” 🎶
Terrific video Brian, I'm giving it an 9/10. My only complaint is that there just wasnt enough Hobbs.
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.😊✌️
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 tour Brian. It's nice that you stop and take us with you to see the sights and sounds! Take Care and Stay Safe. Hobbs needs a treat!
Great teenage memories of Oly beer and a few Rainer also😊
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 !

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.
