I really am, thanks. It's so cool to go through these mountains. I spent the night in Wenatchee, which is a pretty big town in a valley and it came out of miles and miles of nowhere! I expected another one-gas station town and came into a huge, neon-lit jungle! Talk about sensory overload!

Some pics from yesterday:

I goofed, sorry. I went to the Grand Coulee dam and through the lower Cascades yesterday. It was beautiful!

It was a pretty drive all the way.

A lot of your photos will *ake wonderful desk tops :p - Thanks:D

YOO HOO - AMN where for art thou???? Missing you - haha I kopied & pasted the "M" ;) - Are you on your way hoMe yet? :D

She's forgotten us here. She doesn't love us anymore. She's too busy posting her travelogue elsewhere. We've lost her....so sad....:(

Sorry I've been slacking off, all, I spent three days being murdered by friends high in the PacNW. This friend is another MSr I met online and became a great one by phone. We had been waiting over a year to do this and it was super hard to part last night. Even CBK was weeping.

No, Sal, not quite homeward bound just yet. Today is the dreaded day as I go south of Seattle, and once there, I will balance my checkbook. The way home could be long or quite abbreviated once I get that bottom line filled in. I've been avoiding it like the plague!

I do have business in northern CO, so that's a must (my best bud of my entire life has been waiting for me).:)

Here we are at our farewell dinner in a little, surprisingly good, Mexican joint.

I am so glad you are having such a wonderful trip Cindy. It is so exciting to live vicariously through you.

I hope the next leg of your trip is as exciting as the past have been. Keep us posted on your next stop!

Thar she is or should I say errr- was :D -- Fun photo - thanks;) I too is happy for the fun trip you are ha*ing -- I is getting a little warn out - need rest - need dough - need a pool boy to do *y bidding LOL! --- OK so what are we doing today? Are we in Seattle yet?

Well, ya'll, I spent a couple of days in some of the most magnificent places I've ever been. I went well into the North Cascades NP and was astonished over and over again. It might just be the place where I choose to die (at my natural time).

Then, I went out to the Olympic penninsula of WA and was so deep in the nowhere, I felt like I might never leave. Absolutely breathtaking. From the Hoh Rainforest, I came out to large light and realized that I was right on the Pacific coast, what a sight.

I'm taking today off, I'm not up to much so I'll rest a bit.
