…to the Ocean, to the Sea…yes, we did it! I know you have been anticipating lots of pictures and the real scoop, on our glamping trip to Long Beach, WA.  Sorry, but it has been totally crazy around here, since I got back on Monday.

Gorgeous scenery at every turn!

Some of it was even a little nerve wracking.

Excuse my blurry shots, it’s hard to take shots when you are driving (don’t do THIS at home!)!  Yes, there was snow in them thar hills….White Pass to be exact.

We finally found our first night’s home in Randall, WA, on our way to the Pacific Ocean at Long Beach.

Nothing like the Great Northwest…I love the canopy!

After eight hours of driving, some even found the time to do a little glamping!

Heading out again the next morning, we again found rain.

The rain made for some beautiful skies!

I know you are anxious to see our arrival at Long Beach and all the fantastic glampers and all our fun activities.  I will try and do my best to wet your appetite this week.

 

I am heading out to Seattle, my old home town, on Friday to celebrate my Mom’s 90th birthday, so I won’t be able to share much until next week.

  1. I didn't know you were from Seattle! I was born there and lived there until I was 6 but then moved to Enumclaw.
    I look forward to pics but no pressure- oky?

    Happy birthday to your mom! ♥

  6. Great shots, Karen. So funny, I zoomed in on your first picture to see the slogan on the trailer and it said, "Always take the scenic route". You sure did!
