Here in our part of the world there are plenty of tall trees and that is one of the great things about being here in general. Sure there are other areas with trees and I hope people appreciate them.

We were early teens. The sun was warming the apple trees. Being told it would be awhile before they would be ripe and ready to pick only made us more cautious. We were quite high over the dusty drive that lead to Angle Lake.
We were shure no one saw us. Two gangly boys hanging from the branches.
The apples were tart and warm from the heat of the day.
Memories.

Just laying there. A world of opportunities. Dormant not dead. A simple paddle and drift or maybe into the shallows watching for turtles and their heads popping up to see who is there.
I don't consider this a news site at all, however while traveling It is wise to look into local condition.
fire in the Chelan are.
By small I mean don't take the largest RV and don't stay in the grandest resort. See big just means to get out there and get in contact with the world and the wonders all around us. Especially here in the northwest. That's not to say exploring everywhere you can drive.
It's not a completely new idea, but it has a new life. Making your SUV or car or truck comfortable and set-up for camping or just wandering about in a vagabond sort of way. Put wanderlust into action by making your vehicle livable.
This is just a sample of what is out there. I'm not saying these guys have it down, but this does show some ideas and how it can be done.

Years ago when the small towns of the valley were more separated than connected it was obvious there was a history of the region reflected in each of them. Lately we have had reason to be in Auburn, Wa. The changes are impressive.
It is a quiet morning. Looking out at the calm of the lake is soothing. Trees reflected on the still water are a pleasant variety of green tones.
I realize the scene will change not long from now and the colors will be the wonderful hues of fall.
That will also be a moment to enjoy.

Just as often as I think about our region I think about the diversity we have here. Clearly seen by any visitor to the area. Mountains and beaches. Farms and cities and towns. Nice small towns. The cities are still marvels regardless of the troubles we her about.
What draws us here? Well, all of it of course.
