October 4th We Arrive

Crossing the country, there they were - the Rocky Mountains - snow capped.   It has been a long time since we've seen snow.   And then in the distance a huge white form - a mountain ... Mt. Rainier.   A glacier.... I've never seen a glacier.   And the trees - conifers - evergreen - so many.   Then the cities (Seattle and Tacoma) dwarfed by the mountains.    Then the peninsulas and water, docks.   Beautiful.

The drive from the airport to the city - gorgeous.   Trees so tall (some poplars too).   Buildings (no red brick) -  air crisp.    Everything in this place is beautiful.  

More later.
