On the road again

We left Lake Sammamish at around 9:00am. It was raining and rained almost all of the way to Hermiston, OR.
The goodbyes were a little difficult for some as Hugo doesn't like long goodbyes.

This has been a pretty full weekend. Our friends from Canada came down on Saturday and spent the day with us. We have not seen them since last year and it was good to see them.

We had not been to Snoqualmie Falls in the time that we have been in Washington, and it is only a little over 10 miles from the park. So, we decided to take Greg & Dawn to the falls. it surely was a sight to see.

We also went to the Salmon hatchery in Issaquah as we hadn't been there either. We just seem to go to the kid's house on our days off and don't take in the local sights.

The salmon are running and the hatchery is on Issaquah creek so there were lots of salmon in the creek before the fish ladder in the hatchery. A very interesting day to say the least. Greg even fixed dinner. Yum Yum, spaghetti.
We then went over to the newest Senior Park Aid's home for drinks. They live in thew park just across the parking lot from our site.

Yesterday, we celebrated Gracie's 1st birthday. there were many people there including Fred's parents & aunt Rose. Becky's friend Tiffany & her family also attended, as well as Debbie & Ben (the boy).
Gracie surely was excited about her own piece of cake. She attacked it with vigor and made remarkably little mess. This kid knows where food is supposed to go.
