FOR: OUR WORLD. We took a wrong turn on purpose and we're in Washington State (and yes, that is North of Oregon). Silly us -- even the geese know to fly SOUTH this time of year!
But we are here to visit family and for that we are grateful. So it is a little chilly and and a little damp, but definitely worth it!
This is beautiful Mt Ranier in the distance last Thursday evening, just as we turned into the RV Park where we're staying.
A beautiful mountain ! It looks so serene ! Here, snow fell too ! I like so much white summits and golden mountains !

Looks like a beautiful place to go in the wrong direction for and always good to spend time with family.

Yep....I recognized it, and this shot is so pretty. My son on Bainbridge called and said he was coming east on business and would be FINALLY coming home for part of a week. I am euphoric.How am I going to be able to wait. Sorry I all miss his wife and 2 sons, but just having him is more that I could dream of. His brother is only an hour and a half away so I know he will come, too. Now, if only we can get my Mattie here from MD...then we would ALL be together. We are coming out this summer. I am going to force myself back on a plane cause I just have to see the new house and barn on Bainbridge. Take care and stay warm. hugs, genie

Beautiful Mt. Ranier, brings back the memories of driving back and forth from Yakima to Tacoma and Seattle when we managed a motel in Yakima. We took the mountain road as often as time off allowed, to visit friends in Tacoma, and a day in Seattle. We even named our Malamute pup after Lake Tipsoo, due to his early 'accidents.'

I'd always take the turn toward cold rather than hot. :<)

Hi there - I don’t think it was a wrong turn. Visited that part of the world a long, long time ago. Each time I see a picture of that mountain I want to go back.
Cheers - Stewart M

Have a wonderful time with family, it looks as though you are in an area of great beauty. I love the leaves in your previous also.

Hahaha! Do you know how many wrong turns I made? It brought us great pleasure and great photos too.
Have a great time with your family. It is getting cooler here too.

That is taking the long way 'round to get to Florida, but what a view while there!

Such wonderful posts and shots, Sallie. What a wonderful time I've had catching up and seeing your "wrong turn". What do geese really know anyways? ha!

Your Mount Rainier photo is awesome. It looks like a lot of snow for this time of year. We visited here a couple of years ago and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. I'll be following along to see how you get from Washington to Florida.

Washington state is beautiful, any time of year, but that Roadtrek may get mighty cold if you don't head south soon.

Sometimes going the wrong direction is actually the right thing to do! Have a safe trip, Sallie. More snow due here in CO. Enjoy the coast for me!
