Kanaskat-Palmer and the Green River
It’s camping season and sorry to say we are fresh out of campers. We sold our last one a year ago thinking we were done with hauling our sleeping quarters into the woods of the Pacific Northwest, and all over the country for that… Continue Reading “Kanaskat-Palmer and the Green River”

A Walk in the Woods at Flaming Geyser State Park
Another summer day and another walk in the woods, my first at Flaming Geyser State Park. Now before you get too excited, I must disavow you of the notion that there’s an actual flaming geyser in the park. No. Sorry.
