We made it yesterday from Glacier National Park to Yellowstone in one day. A few views leaving Glacier. I had to quickly snap the next two picture to prove to Arlie that we really did pass through Arlee, Montana (an unincorporated community in MT). Of course they didn’t spell it correctly. LOL We planned to… Continue reading Yellowstone NP Day1 – Mammoth Hot Springs + Falls

Glacier NP – Easier Exploration
Today was our third and last day to explore Glacier National Park. We were NOT up for any long hike, but we felt we could tackle a couple easy and of course significantly shorter hikes today. I wore my Keen sport sandals with socks (and bandaids). My hiking shoes were not an option. Nor were… Continue reading Glacier NP – Easier Exploration
Relax & Recover
After our Highline Trail hike yesterday that took us 11 hours and 40 minutes to complete, and seriously tested our limitations. We took everything off our itinerary for today and replaced it with Relax and RECOVER. Serious hikers we are not. (Obviously!) We do enjoy hikes here and there to explore cool areas as we… Continue reading Relax & Recover
Glacier NP – A MAJOR Miscalculation!
Today was our first day exploring Glacier National Park. Since we’re fresh and ready to go we thought we should begin with the hike that interested us the most – the HIGHLINE TRAIL. We thought this hike was a doable, moderate hike – just long. We were so wrong. This was by far the hardest… Continue reading Glacier NP – A MAJOR Miscalculation!
Wine and Pickleball in Yakima
Saturday, August 19 we headed east to the Yakima Elks Golf Course and Lodge with RV parking. It is a gorgeous setting, but unfortunately, Yakima woke up this morning to smoky skies from the raging fires in Canada and a few in WA. Glad we have 50amp service to run the air conditioners and our… Continue reading Wine and Pickleball in Yakima
Van Gogh Immersive Experience
Abby, Barry, and I drove from Abby’s apartment in Shoreline to Northgate to take the Light Rail south to the Stadium station. From there we walked to the Van Gogh Immersive Experience. Have I mentioned how much we love using the Light Rail system!?! It is SO much better than the stress of driving into… Continue reading Van Gogh Immersive Experience
Chihuly + with Abby and Richard
Today Barry, Abby, Richard and I all went to the Chihuly Garden and Glass Exhibit in Seattle. It was a first for all of us. Barry rode the light rail up to Seattle from the Angle Lake Station, Abby and I rode it from Northgate, and Richard walked from his Seattle apartment to meet us… Continue reading Chihuly + with Abby and Richard
The LeMay America’s Car Museum
We’ve been to Tacoma before, but have never gone to the LeMay America’s Car Museum right off I-5 by the Tacoma Dome. We decided our visit this time would be the perfect time to fit it in. $20 for seniors (and free parking). This is quite an amazing collection of cars. I’m not really into… Continue reading The LeMay America’s Car Museum
CVR’s CAN-AM Pickleball Games 2023
Today, Sunday March 5, we participated in CVR’s (Carefree Village Resort) CanAm Games for pickleball. To be as fair as possible, Brenda L. and Bob M. grouped everyone into one of three levels for paired playing between USA teams and Canadian teams. Barry and I both played in the advance player group – although neither… Continue reading CVR’s CAN-AM Pickleball Games 2023
Yuma ARTrails 2023- Tour Highlights
This weekend was the 17th annual ARTrails (Art Trails) Studio Tour in the Yuma Foothills. I had no idea that my pickleball friend, Cindy, was a talented painter. After seeing some of her paintings at her home, I asked if she knew about the ARTrails weekend. She did not, so I invited her to ride… Continue reading Yuma ARTrails 2023- Tour Highlights
