The Evergreen State


On the vehicle license plate it says Washington is the Evergreen State. I'd say so. Last week when my father'n law was in town we went on a family day trip to the Olympic peninsula. Its basically the entire national forest land between us and the Pacific ocean. It includes the Olympic mountains, rainforest, and many, many numerous trails; and then when you think you couldn't see any more beauty, God pleasantly surprises you w/ the mighty Pacific ocean. The moss on these trees is so thick it just hangs...its so pretty. It was a full day for us, and the kids did great considering they have been in the car a lot this summer. It was approximately 400 miles on our speedometer. We were pooped when we pulled into our driveway at after midnight:)

That's so incredibly beautiful. If you're baiting us to come visit you for our next girls' weekend it's working!
