We opted to stay put most of the day. Set up chairs in the woods behind the T@B and just relaxed. Bits of sun filtered in once in a while but mostly the day was gray. We did some walking around the campground but nothing strenuous. Late in the afternoon we climbed...
Awakening this morning to gray skies, we figured this must be the first day of winter. So grateful we had the opportunity to visit Rainier in the sunshine! As we were preparing to depart three deer came through a neighboring site on their breakfast circuit. From Alder...
See Mount Rainer Experiences Video See Park Video The day's possibilities was our first thoughts as we awakened today. We explored Alder Lake Park a bit then made arrangements to extend our stay by one day and visit Mount Rainier on this gloriously beautiful day. Back...
As it turns out our angst about the traffic we would encounter in our drive past the Seattle area was for naught. Of course the fact that we traveled south on the I-405 bypass on a Sunday morning was important in avoiding traffic craziness. Â Fascinated with views of...
It's great to have a plan but sometimes it's better to change plans. Our plan had been to stay at Riverside just one night but this morning we looked at the maps, calculated some travel times and decided to stay here one more night so that we could explore a bit of...
For those of us that travel by the seats of our pants, weekends in high season present a challenge. We try to identify campgrounds that might be less popular and to arrive early in the afternoon. Today we headed west from Newhalem, stopped at the Cascadian Farm...
As we walked into the North Cascade National Park Newhalem Visitors Center we were greeted with "Happy Birthday!" from the ranger at the information counter. Yes! One hundred years ago today Woodrow Wilson signed the Organic Act establishing the National...
It was a glorious drive along Washington State Highway 20, the North Cascades Scenic Highway. We left our campsite at Orondo to head north on US-97 then at Paternos we caught WA-153. It was at Twisp that we began traveling on WA-20. We fueled up and gave a T@B tour in...
We started in Ellensburg after a cuppa, a bit of fruit, and a little cheese. And headed north on US-97 past some glorious scenery. And signs of the local fruit industry. Into the Bavarian themed community of Leavenworth and sampled the fare at Home Fires Bakery inside...
From Burbank we headed northwest on I-82 through the Yakima Valley. Looking through the windshield at amazing landscapes and snow capped mountains in the distance. We detoured off the highway to see the 1922 gas station built to draw attention to the Teapot Dome...

As we begin venturing into Central London we explore Primrose Hill,the Victoria Memorial, the Gatti Ice House at the London Canal Museum, and the HMS Belfast with more adventures to follow.
It’s been a gentle start to our London visit. We’ve taken it easy for a few days and concentrated on enjoying Hampstead.
On our transition day from the cruising segment of this summer’s adventures to an England visit based in Hampstead in London we savored the comforts of a Blue Eurostar journey through The Chunnel.
