Washington has broken teperature records since we've been here. Yesterday we went to Seattle and the temp topped at 104. Thankfully, it does cool down enough at night to sleep. Hardly anyone has A\C here but, store sold out of a\c ubits and fans! Nathanael was able to gert one by calling a buddy WHO HAPPENED TO BE AT A wAL-MART WHEN A TRUCK LOAD CAME IN. His buddy ran back and got the last one!
This morning we went up the road a couple miles and got a few pics of eagles. Going to try for some more tonight or in the morning.
This area reminds us a lot of AK. It's a very liberal area though. To be able to hunt requires jumping through a lot of hoops. I guess they figure if it's too much of a pain people just won't hunt.
Tom was very impressed by the cleanliness of the area when he hiked into the Olympic mountain on the Dungeness trail. The state does a good job of keeping the area clean by enforcing strict rules. They're nothing the good hiker can't live with and it does keep the rif-raf out.
He hiked in about 7 miles, spent the night and came out in the morning.He saw a lot of beautiful scenery and some wildlife. Unfortunately, the camera battery ran out! When we get home I'll be able to post some more pics. Without the 2nd screen it's hard to see what I'm choosing.
This is just a quick update and a few pics to change the sceneery here!
