Clouds Get In My Eyes Day-Day 19

Was a real nice day for the most part as I awoke with a temperature of 54F and it did reach a high of 66F in the afternoon.  It plummeted to 40F at the top of the drive to Paradise (Mount Ranier viewing station) and as one can see from the picture of the fox it was extremely misty from the clouds I was in.  Gasoline prices in Washington are out of this world as I paid $3.999/gallon.  One of the locals stated that there are huge taxes (state) added to cause this.  I did spend a good deal of time on the road but it was most enjoyable.  It seems what ever direction one looks out here there are Mountains.  The Northwest is very pleasing to the eye.  I will be seeing Tacoma today and then up to the Eitners.
Stay in touch folks!

  1. One might say "I've looked at clouds from both sides now"? Nice to hear we are not the only highly taxed state!
