Over Seattle and Under California
Summer is the time to travel and if you have to fly there’s nothing like Seattle from the air, where on a clear day you can see forever – at least across Puget Sound to the Olympics. And if you’re lucky you’ll have close-up… Continue Reading “Over Seattle and Under California”

Nascar Hall of Fame
I think I can count on one hand the number of auto races I’ve seen in my entire life. Still, last year in Charlotte, we visited the Nascar Hall of Fame when we realized it was a few blocks from our hotel. Why not?… Continue Reading “Nascar Hall of Fame”

Scenes From the Oregon Coast – Harbor Seals at Coquille Point and Port Orford
I didn’t mean to leave you high and dry in the middle of the Oregon Coast so I’m back to finish up our journey, finally with some sunshine, if only temporary! I left you last time at Face Rock, pondering when the gray skies… Continue Reading “Scenes From the Oregon Coast – Harbor Seals at Coquille Point and Port Orford”

Dry Falls, the Largest on Earth
This week we camped east of the mountains and enjoyed a landscape completely opposite to our Seattle area scenery. We drove through Grand Coulee, formed over millions of years by eruptions of lava which solidified and was later dug away by ice age floods.… Continue Reading “Dry Falls, the Largest on Earth”

Dancing Sky!
We woke this morning to cirrus clouds filling the sky! We’re in Wenatchee on our first camping trip of the year where the scenery is grand and the clouds only tease. More pictures to come. 😊 -Susanne
