We visited the Flying Heritage and Combat Armor Museum again, since they were opening a new hangar. Not too many pictures this time, but there were a lot more tanks on display. The found this airplane (German Stuka) in a field in Russia after it crashed trying to attack Murmansk. They are in the process of making it flyable again.…
Just a few pictures from around town. These are outside the public library. Pics of the Naval Station The view of the mountains on a clear day. View of the mountains from inside the hospital.
Today we decided to take advantage of a non rainy mostly sunny day and get some sightseeing done. We made a big circle. We started off by heading north to Anacortes. This was a really cute town that we would like to go back to when we have more time to check it out. We did have lunch in a…
So, it was a rainy Saturday in the PNW, and we decided to find something to do inside. I wanted to go to another airplane museum, and Carolynn was down with that, so we headed south in to Seattle. The museum is at Boeing Field, and has aircraft of all ages. Plus it is right on the airfield, so you…
Today we decided to take a trip down a scenic drive not far from us. Chuckanut Drive. The weather was horrible and rainy but we wanted to give it a go anyways. It was a pretty cool drive and I bet the views would be awesome on a clearer day so we may give it another go at a later…
Today we stayed here in Everett. We decided to go visit the Evergreen Aboretum and Gardens. Since today was possibly the last non rainy day for a while we wanted to do something outside. I was surprised at all of the color still hanging around. Here are some pics from inside the Arboretum. There were hummingbirds hanging around a tree…
Today, we took advantage of my day off and nice weather and visited Mt Rainier National Park. The weather forecast for the park was mostly cloudy with a high of about 30 so we dressed accordingly. Turns out the forecast was only right about the mostly cloudy part. The temperature stayed right around 50. Because of this, we were quite…
Today we headed into the Mt. Baker – Snoqualmie National Forest to hike to the ice caves. The path to the caves is a relatively easy one. The path/boardwalk is very well maintained. It was a cool 46 degrees when we got there. Luckily we had brought our jackets because we were both wearing shorts. There are plenty of signs…
What a week!! This assignment is taking some getting used to. This hospital is huge compared to any place I’ve been before. I have to make about 75 u-turns during the day because I’m going the wrong way. Luckily, all of the staff has been super nice and helpful. Once the weekend got here we decided to try a couple…
On this past Sunday we decided to explore a little bit before Carolynn started at Providence. So I found three places that would appeal to both of us. One was a lighthouse, which we did not stay at, as the parking was $4 an hour. Since we haven’t had income in 5 weeks, I decided that we would come back…
