Hydrangeas and Mt. Rainier

When recently in Washington, we went to a park where the absolutely most beautiful hydrangeas were blooming. They don't grow near so large in Georgia is all I can say. Just rows of them and so many beautiful colors.
Wayne was holding his hand out to show how large they are. You have to see them to believe it!
At this same park, Sondra and I stood in front of this rather large tree also.
And here is Mt. Rainier, revisited - two days of hiking with absolutely beautiful weather and the mountain in clear view. Quite a few snow patches still to walk through but with a walking stick, I managed. Wonderful memories being made!

Fun Trip to DC

This was last weekend standing in front of the Capitol in DC. We had a great trip visiting Doug and Dora and seeing the sights in the area.

Mt. Rainier

Wow, has it really been June since I last did a post? It's been a busy summer, quilting and we did make a trip to see our daughter, Sondra, in Washington. Here are a few pictures taken at Mt. Rainier. Isn't it funny, wearing shorts and sweating and snow on the ground all around, and some on the trail, too. We had to be rather careful as it got slippery in the snow (at least for me the older person). What an awesome mountain! You just can't begin to realize how large it is until you view it in person.
Here is Sondra and Wayne as we are moving on up the trail.

This is Reflection Lake. The reflection this day was in some very shallow water near the edge!
