Free Cybertour of Fort Casey, near Coupeville, WA
I didn't want to pay and was the only one in the parking lot at the time. The Park Ranger station was closed when I got there. The fort doesn't look like its worth paying $10 to me. I decided to take a 10 minute tour quickly. I had to keep looking back at my car to make sure no one would check my car and give me a ticket.
You can easily see the parking lot from any part of the defense wall.
You can find this fort on the island of Whidby. The location is Washington State. The DOD determined that the inlet was very important and needed strong defense in the 1890s. So, in response, 3 forts were erected to provide defense for the inlet. One of them being Fort Casey.
The defense was specifically designed to thwart a naval attack. Unfortunately, the planners didn't foresee the invention of airplanes, which occurred in 1903. The Fort Casey bunker became obsolete quickly because Casey was no match for planes.
The design was inspiring even though planes were invented a few years later. The guns were constructed in a way to hide when not in use. They would raise and lower over the wall, raising only when about to fire on the enemy. However, no enemy came and the fort never needed to be used.
Another reason that Fort Casey became obsolete, if the planes weren't enough of an argument, was that technology and accuracy were improving. Static posts were no longer very useful since its much easier to target a static post, rather than a mobile one. Our modern day warfare is almost based entirely on being highly mobile now.
The two guns on display at Fort Casey had seen use in World War 2. They were moved to the island of the Philippines and were damaged a little by shrapnel from the Japanese bombings. In the 1960, the 2 guns were salvaged from Fort Wint on the U. S. Naval Base Subic Bay. They were restored for display purposes only afterwards.

Ep. 170 - Whidbey Island
Whidbey Island sits along Puget Sound and has a long history dating back to the 1800s. The island is the largest of all the islands making up Island County in Washington. It is a picturesque location that stretches for 55 miles making it the fourth longest and largest island in the contiguous United States. It is home to the Naval Air Station Whidbey Island. The island also is home to Fort Casey, Ebey's Landing, Admiralty Head Lighthouse and a few legends and stories of hauntings, that include The Lurker. Join us as we explore the history and hauntings of Whidbey Island. The Moment in Oddity was suggested by Ronda Borgen and features killer clothing and This Day in History features the ratification of the Bill of Rights. Our location was suggested by Marjorie Sneed.

The City of Langley is a favorite weekend and vacation destination for people in the greater-Seattle area...and anyone else wanting relaxation, beautiful scenery, and country charm. You are invited and there's always room.
As a local photographer, I am in a unique position with a tremendous inventory of photos, and so this video is my way of giving back to our/my community.

One fine day to Whidbey Island
This was an impromptu day-trip. We were heading to San Juan Islands before realizing that the ferry sailing was in the mid-afternoon.
The trip took us to Whidbey Island to explore it for the first time. The weather forecast was bleak. So glad we did not plan around it. We drove about 250 miles in 12 hours.
Please let me know what you think. Comments and feedback are appreciated. Thanks for your support.
Here are what we did:
1) Drove about ~2 hours to catch Washington State Ferry at Mukilteo, WA
2) Boarded the ferry and landed in Clinton, WA (20 minutes crossing)
3) Visited Langley, WA
4) Visited Fort Casey
5) Visited Coupeville, WA and enjoyed Penn Cove Mussels from the Cove Cafe
6) Visited Deception Pass State Park
7) Stopped in Seattle for a Chirashi Bowl before heading for home.
