Photos from the weekend:
The cabin we stayed
in. Everything was really nice, except for...
...the FREAKSHOW lamps
in the bedroom. The ceramic flowery thing in the middle...the
weird stitched dogchew-like rawhide shades...their unrelenting
pinkness. JB bumped into one, did a double take, stared
at it, then said in a wondering tone: "What are you?"
Yes, I'm a tool, but
I'm a tool with striped pajamas and a giant Frappucino, thankyouverymuch.
Also apparently I am auditioning for Hooters right there. What?
We drove all the way
up to Paradise, where we found a LOT of snow. That's the visitor
center.
Oh, have you been to
the Dim Room With Backlit DEAD THINGS at the Mt. Rainier visitor
center? I simply cannot recommend it enough!
When you are in the
Dim Room With Backlit Dead Things, look up - very, very carefully.
GAH!
Deer on the side of
the road. Pretty.
Narada Falls. COLD.
I wish this photo had
turned out better - all that raging water thundering down under
the bridge, the snow floating everywhere. So lovely. Also, COLD.
We drove back down
out of the snow (due to my whining) and did a short walk up to
another falls (can't remember the name, you see it from the road).
Where shucky darn,
we had to turn back because the bridge wasn't crossable. I am
grinning like a loon because I wasn't looking forward to skittering
across some slippery-ass wooden bridge over the WATER and all.
Um, except our hike
to Carter Falls included...
This fucker. There
is ONE railing there, people. ONE.
I'm smiling but I'm
really trying not to drop a load in my Old Navy corduroy cargos.
After inching along
with me, Ms. Chickenguts USA, JB sprinted back over for
a photo op. Totally didn't use that railing, either. Bastard.
Another deer, spotted
in the woods. Pretty.
Big bad Johnny and
his Clint-squint. Works, though, doesn't it?
