we stayed at the most wonderful little cabin/lodge.
it was quite big for our little group of seven.
all of you could have joined us, and there would have
been wriggle room to spare.
next time, you're coming with us.
i would have sat out on this bench to read and write
if it hadn't been so rainy.
but i was happy for the rain...it was very cozy indeed.
i loved seeing my nieces and nephew in their rain boots and slickers.
puddles didn't stand a chance against these little ones.
next time, and there will be a next time, i'm going to
take some more time to explore and go on little walks beyond
the sight of the lodge. next time.
i love how many trees there are in this washington state.
they are thick, and they are oh so alive.
the lodge.
was imagining that i actually lived here.
this little restaurant was amazing.
best veggie wrap i've ever had.
the flavors were so surprising and savory.
and the best thing of all:
fresh blackberry pie!
we bought three.
i could have been on this drive forever.
so many calm and peaceful scenes to gaze at.
loved being so near mt. ranier,
though i never actually saw it through all the clouds...
but i did walk on it.
that's good enough for now.

Oh my goodness! Your photography is simply stunning and makes me want to go there. Right now. It looks like a movie, or a perfect setting for a novel.
oh my....i so want to be there.
gorgeous shots
What a beautiful house, rain or shine...I live in the northwest and our spring has been shite...today the sun has come out but I think its only for a short visit...my poor little veggies need some sun!
Beautiful
Is there anything sweeter than little wellie boots stomping through the puddles!
Wow, that place looks amazing. Next time we'll come along too!
Blackberry Pie ... sounds heavenly!! xo
What beautiful shots!
That last photo of the dew drops on the flowers and grass is just breathtaking!
You need to put together a book of your photos and publish it or something. Seriously, your photos make me so happy!! These ones in particular!
oohhh these photos are so breathtaking and dreamy!
What a dreamy and peaceful place. That cabin looks like it came straight out of a fairy-tale. I'm sure gnomes live under the nearby trees and there must be a friendly giant living in the mountains.
What a beautiful place, and to be able to enjoy it with your loved ones was a real bonus....:-)Hugs
Love the photos, sound like an amazing trip.
this series just calmed right down. it helped me exhale- beautiful!
Oh my, didi you take these photos? Thaey are insanely beautiful. Love words as well. xx
What respite from the desert heat to pore through these photos, AM! Sounds like a truly magical trip full of blanket-snuggling, the smell of moss and wet bark, and those blackberry pies! We are trying to map our route for our road trip in the Scamp and want to head up the coast to Vancouver, but maybe we should head inland? Any advice?
Xo!
I love the final, beautiful flower photograph.
