Leaving Washington

7 comments

IMG_7264 

The journey begins from Olympia, Washington where we stayed for a few weeks in a nice RV park near a Christmas Tree farm, horses and an American-Indian reservation. (There was also a sign for “Christian Marriage Counseling” on the way to the nearest grocery store which seemed ironically conspicuous to us at the time.) Our goal was to drive to Spokane in a day’s time and boondock in a Wal-Mart parking lot overnight. We made it past Spokane – just barely! – and stayed across the border in Idaho.

Wow, it wasn’t so bad!

Copy of IMG_7278 Our first stop at a beautiful rest stop with snow-capped mountains in the background. We ate lunch here. How nice it was to simply pull out some food from the fridge and put together some sandwiches!

IMG_7286 Ah, sweet freedom after spending so much time literally tied down in a truck!

IMG_7307 There he is, in my side-mirror, hanging out and enjoying the ride!

That’s the kind of image that i really thing is super image like.

If more images very real like this were out there we’d be super
full of graet images in the world.

Hello! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems
with hackers? My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing several weeks of hard work due to no back up.
Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?

クロエ 財布 京都 Hi there this is somewhat of off topic but I was
wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors or if
you have to manually code with HTML. I’m starting a blog soon but have no coding
experience so I wanted to get advice from someone with experience.
Any help would be enormously appreciated! クロエ
