We spent the week exploring the Pacific Northwest. We had Meghan (17) and Alex (16) and we LOVED showing them the sights and activities in the area. We went to Vancouver and walked around Granville Island and then scared ourselves at the Capilano Suspension Bridge. Alex got to see the home of the Canucks which was a thrill.
We drove to Seattle and shopped at Pike Place Market. From there we took the Underground Seattle tour which I thought was very interesting. We took the ferry from downtown Seattle to Bremerton and then stayed overnight in Port Orchard right on the Puget Sound. Randy is a good travel agent. hehe :) From there we drove up to Port Townsend and then took the ferry across to Fort Casey. It was really neat to walk around the fort, see all the big guns, lookouts and walk through the dark tunnels.
Back in Sumas we visited alot of family and friends. Randy and I stayed at the Sumas Mountain Lodge for a few nights to give his mom some space. We had a great room that overlooked Mt Baker and a jacuzzi tub in the room. One afternoon we took in the Sumas race cars and raced eachother around the track. I laughed and laughed as I kept getting passed by everyone but it was sooooo fun!
Driving from the northern most point of Washington back to California in the new truck was awesome! I got to see alot of areas I had never been. Now I cannot wait to go back to far North California and Mt Shasta area. Beautiful areas that I've never explored.
