Am I only on day 2 of our vacation? Good grief.
We spent our first night at the state park near Mount St. Helens. It would have been even more inviting had there not been a militia of monster mosquitoes! I think I lost a pint of blood, and we headed into the trailer early.
The next morning dawned cool and misty. The boys rode their bikes around our camp site (Leif figured out how to ride his little bike with training wheels... I'm so glad Russ brought it along!!). Levi spent some time reading in the great outdoors.
We headed up the road. Beautiful day for viewing Mount St. Helens, no?
Spent some time exploring the Forestry Center...
Walked up to the look-out....
Lovely view of the clouds...
We then packed up camp and headed north. The drive was dull and gray. The boys read and read and read. We finally made it to Anacortes!
We parked the trailer at Deception Pass State Park and watched the sunset from the beach. Gorgeous, gorgeous, gorgeous. Even if it was cloudy and cool.
Wow!! Jeans & jackets... what a treat!
ReplyDeleteLovely photos as always, Heidi-- so glad you had a wonderful vacation :)
Oh, my the last picture is spectacular. Great job. What a fun summer you have had.
ReplyDeleteOne thing is certain, Heidi. Without seeing Mt. St. Helen, the beautiful foreground with the wild flowers and green vegetation was more noticable, but a disappointment I'm sure. The pictures of Deception Pass are beautiful!! I can remember going there as a kid but now I see how really beautiful the place is. I think I can guess who is in the last picture. Beautiful scenes all. Grandma
ReplyDeleteThat last photo of your son on the cliff is spectacular. Looks like someone was Praising God!!! ~Tera
