We've been planning on a quick trip up to Washington state to see the family but it kind of got shaken up when we had to put Ollie down. However, we finally hit the road. My wife has a brother, sister and her birth-mother all living on the Olympic Peninsula in Western Washington so once we get there it is easy enough to visit everyone. That's pretty much what we did. Just a quick 2,500 mile journey. Don't all crazy people do that?
Of course those folks live very differently than we do here! My wife's sister and her husband have this to look at every day.
Yes, that's Mt. Rainier across the water there.
My wife's brother has to look at this.
That would be Vancouver Island across the straits. Of course they don't want us visiting these days but maybe we'll get cleaned up in a few years!
He also has neighbors with infants.
That last little one was born while we were visiting! It was a good trip and it was great to see everyone. My only problem is that I'd really like to do the trip over again but taking my camera and stopping about 20 times a day to take photos!
Now we are sitting around home, going out to eat at our favorite restaurants and dreaming up another trip. This one should be even shorter; just a few days over in California to see No. 1 Son and his wife. It won't be a long trip but you've got to check up on these people once in a while.
Thanks for stopping by and keep washing those hands!
