This past week, we met up with some of Isaac's friends in the Wenatchee National Forest to go camping. Mike is a friend from the Army, and the trip was a surprise for him--his wife planned it and we surprised him at the campground. It was fun and we had some good conversations. Washington continues to amaze me with how beautiful it is. Our drive west from Spokane along Highway 2 takes us through wheat fields and small towns, along the Columbia River through all these canyon/valley things, past Wenatchee, which is dry but full of orchards, and into the Cascade Mountains. I love the Northwest.
Next trip is a drive to Minnesota at the beginning of August. Rather than taking a straight shot through the most boring land the country has to offer (i.e. eastern Montana and North Dakota), we'll take a more southern route, through Wyoming and South Dakota, and camp a couple nights along the way. We plan stop at Mount Rushmore--we're suckers for tourist traps (NOT! But it's still something you have to see once in your life) and stay in the Badlands. SO excited!
