Photos from the Road

On our Highway 12 trip, we took a few extra photos and photos and photos. . .


There was a parade in Morton. Morton Loggers Jubilee. Everyone seemed to be having a good time, but we couldn't stick around for long.


Chainsaw carvers were selling their wares at the jubilee. A bit too expensive to tempt me. Off by a factor of ten or so.

Up at White Pass, we went for a hike south on the Pacific Crest Trail.


Flowers were blooming.


Mt Rainier was in clouds, but other views caught our gaze.


Would you like some watermelon?


While I drove, Chunlin took some photos of the cliffs upriver of Naches.


We camped near the Yakima River at an RV park.


The US 12 bridge across the Snake River, leaving the Tri-Cities behind. Chunlin likes taking this kind of photo, and I like that.


Just before you leave Washington, Highway 12 loses its US shield. Just a little goodbye reminder, I guess.


Up the hill from Lewiston, a viewpoint. The old highway can be glimpsed in the lower left. Much curvier than the new route. If I had known about it, I would have driven it. Next time.


After lunch in Colfax, Chunlin drove. I took photos.








After we crossed the Columbia River, I stopped taking photos. I took over the wheel at the rest area near Cle Elum, and then we returned home.

It's nice to go on a trip, but it's also nice to be home.

Except for the to-do list, that is.
