Ladies, Gentlemen and fellow citizens, this is my story of a simple, week-long trip home to Oak Harbor, Washington in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. I should note, here are only some of the 350 pictures I took with my digital camera during this particular excursion.
| Excuse me, mister, how much will it cost to drive my car through? | Smokey Point Cedar Stump |
| Pass Lake | Driving through Washington is a flat out incredible, breathtaking experience with all of the pleasant roads (lots of tourists), greenery (mold), and water (salt). |
| Ah, a sunset backdropped Deception Pass bridge. | Deception Pass Bridge |
 |
My sister’s house looked very similar to this the entire time I was visiting. Hmm, it didn’t start viewing better until I decided to leave, is there a coincidence here? |
| GennyT visits the beach. |  |

Here’s that town I visited; Oak Harbor. It’s located on Whidbey Island, the second-largest island in the United States, next to Manhattan. |
| What do you name a town back in the old days, no even farther back than that, that produced Concrete? Answer: Concrete. |  |
| Skagit River | Skagit Valley along Highway 20 just outside of Concrete. |
| There is nothing like driving through the Ross Lake National Park and taking in the sights of tall mountains, steep dams, and snow-field fed lakes. |    |
 |
I think someone needs to edit this road sign for the summertime. How about HOT ROADS AHEAD? |
| I drove more and more and more and more and more miles than I really needed to for this trip. |  |

A recent friendship has brought a deeper appreciation of the evening sky. The evening sky helps me find peace within me. |
| Eastern Washington Sunset |  |

After living in Washington for over 15 years, I finally went to Grand Coulee Dam to see the laser show. Of course, my pictures didn’t turn out as desired, since I didn’t use a long exposure time for the camera. |
| Hmm, maybe there is a computer older than my 486/25SL laptop. |  |
 |
This is a B-52 BUFF. The Iraqi’s learned to hide quickly when it flew over and started dropping many tons of high explosives on their heads. |
| I think this is something leftover from the Spokane Worlds Fair. If you know what it is, please email me the information. |  |
 |
Raindrops keep falling on my head, Raindrops keep pelting my car, I must drive, drive and drive on… …till the rain has washed me away. |
| Driving by the Snake River in Idaho on Highway 95. |  |
Please remind me not to go on any more 600 miles a day road trips. My butt gets sore.
