Winter Wonderland

Hello Everyone!

A few months ago we took our last camping trip of the season.

We had a beautiful site near a river. The trees were turning color and there was that incredibly delicious smell of Fall in the Pacific Northwest. We were only about an hour away from Mr. Rainier so we went up there and took a spectacle hike at the base of the mountain. There was plenty of snow but still light for the area. We were walking in a Winter’s Wonderland! So fresh and … cold. Luckily I packed my warm clothes πŸ™‚

We don’t get much snow here. We are both originally from the East coast so our wintertime childhoods were spent in snow, snow and more snow. I loved it! Sledding, skating, snowball fights, and thawing out by the radiator with my sister. (We always stayed out too long!)

My husband and I agree, we could not live as adults in areas with winter snows, but as long as we can get to it now and then, it remains a lovely memory.

Stay warm and have a safe and happy winter to all those who get plenty of the white stuff. And fingers crossed we’ll get our 3-5 inches around Christmas time πŸ™‚ Which, by the way shuts down the entire area! LOL.

Until next time, Peace and Love! V.

Mt. Rainier, Washington State
