With the still melting snow out here our choices of easier ‘family hikes’ is limited so we choose Silver Falls Loop, a hike out in the Ohanapecosh area of Mt. Rainier NP. It is a hike we often due in late spring (it melts early) but this year the falls were still thundering even in [...]

With what has seemed like a never ending rain storm (it rained ALL week) this morning there was a small window of what promised to be clear. Not sunny but at least no rain. We liked that! My brother was visiting and offered to give Kirk and I some “us” time. It is always so [...]
