I'm thoroughly enjoying this tag-along ride, Heidi-- I've only seen the west coast (and its surrounding areas) in pictures. In fact, aside from Hawaii, the farthest west I've ever been is Colorado. How I'd love to see your neck of the woods one day. Lovely... truly!
p.s. Fruit Loops are a vacation favorite here, too :)
Hi Heidi,
Your pics are fantastic! Quick blog question for you - i notice you use blogspot (as do I), and i'm wondering how you get your pictures to be so big - mine are probably half has wide as yours are. Did you do something custom to get them to be so wide? Any tips you could give would be most helpful.

I am really enjoying your pictures of your family trip to Washington state. Stan and I spend most of our vacations there because of all the beautiful water, and fun places to visit.

How do you find all these wonderful places? I live in your same state and I have never heard of them! (Albeit, my family was never much of a camping family...growing up anyway, we have yet to try it with the kiddos along!) Love the photos!
