MINI VACATION

Water spraying over the bridge. The wind was blowing so hard that Donna had a hard time steering her big car.You can see the waves in this picture. It was a little scary but it was amazing to watch.

On our way to the bridge and the ferry, there were branches hitting the car. They sounded like rocks. We were held up by a fallen tree. A couple of guys got out of their cars and pulled the tree to the side of the road. The branch you see below is what we saw all the way.

My Snake plants looks like it is going to flower. It is rare that the Snake plant will bloom when it is indoors. My Palm plant did well while I was gone too but a little Mini Rose that Donna bought me completely died. I should have set it outside.

I had a mini vacation at Debbie's house. Donna took me over there on Wednesday, the 2nd, and we came back on Sunday, the 6th. Donna had a teaching convention at Ocean Shores and we thought that would be a good time for me to have a little vacation. As you can see from the pictures we got caught in a wind storm. With the downed tree we missed one ferry. At least we got to Debbie's safely. I had a good time. Diane took me to the Sewing Expo at the Puyallup Fairgrounds on Thursday. I really enjoyed that. There were so many things to see. We had dinner with Richard at Red Robin when we got back from the expo. Before we went to the expo, Diane took us to Rachel and Daryl's house and I got to hold darling little Harper.

Friday afternoon Debbie, Kent, Erik and I all went to a show at the Landing. We ate at Red Robin. Two days in a row I ate a Hamburger. I don't eat hamburgers very often. I seldom eat beef but they did taste good.

Saturday Debbie, Kent, Erik and I all went to Woodland Park Zoo. I had not been there for years. It was fun. It was a little cool but the sun was out and it made walking around cheerful. It is nice all the habitats there are there for the animals. It is so different than it was years ago.

Then Sunday we went to Harper's blessing and we headed back to Sequim in the afternoon because Donna had an 8am meeting for school on Monday. The days went by too fast.
