While it has been fun chronicling Mama T’s and Baby T’s travel adventures, I must admit I have been a little jealous. I didn’t want to just write about their adventures, I wanted to take one of them with me on my own adventure! I finally got my wish in early September when Joe and I had the opportunity to take a road trip to visit my parents in Washington state (driving out and flying back). We drove through Wyoming (including Yellowstone!), Montana, Idaho, and of course, Washington. Here are a few pictures from our travels:
The adventure begins in Wyoming…wide open spaces with a wee tiger on the loose!
Oh boy…Old Faithful at last (trust me, it was a long, out-of-the-way drive to get here!)!
Wow…Old Faithful is just as reliable as they said…and just as beautiful!
I see all of the water, but where are the trees? Isn’t this the Evergreen State? (Pictured is the Columbia River in Washington State. Eastern and middle Washington are rather barren.)
Ah…here is where all of the trees went! (Pictured is Snoqualmie Falls in Washington State. Thanks to Joe for holding Baby T…Baby T was so excited he almost fell into the falls [really!]!)
Baby T watches a ferry arriving at the dock in Seattle on the Pudget Sound (another close call for Baby T, too…he sure likes the water!).
The Seattle skyline from the ferry as we begin our journey across the Sound to Bremerton. The sun DOES shine in Seattle!
After much fun in Washington, Baby T says goodbye as we fly back home to Colorado (flying past Mt. Rainier).
I think Baby T enjoyed his trip, but is glad to be home. A warning to future travelers who take Baby T with them…be sure to hold on tight…he likes to attempt to jump into any water he sees!
ITS:Always fun, never boring
