It’s not often I get to meet up with my business partner—really, any time we are able to meet up with friends it is a random occurrence in which we all end up at the same place at the same time. But here we were, just an hour apart, so … Read More
Touring D.C.
There aren’t many things more cool to a five-year-old boy than a truck that turns into a boat. After a couple days of museums, he earned it. We toured the Natural History museum, the Air and Space Museum, the National Gallery of Art, the Spy Museum, The U.S. Capitol, the … Read More
Washington, D.C.
D.C. is kind of like New York for us, in the respect that it is chock full of things that we’ve seen our entire lives, but never in person. It’s nice to finally see these places with our own eyes. Washington is an exhausting place to see on foot. It’s 2 … Read More
Seattle Tourists
I’ve said it a million times, but it’s true, that when you live this wandering lifestyle the world gets smaller. Case in point, the other day we got to meet up with our friends from Mali Mish who we last saw in Santa Barbara about a year ago. We also … Read More
Kite Festival
Looking at the map one day I spotted in little red letters, Kite Museum. That sounded good enough to make it a destination for the kids. We happened to have internet that night so I looked it up and the website said that they hosted a big international kite festival every … Read More
Grays Harbor
Down along the coast we moved slowly through small towns, getting groceries in markets with one aisle. In Quinalt we stopped in at the lodge—a gorgeous building built with grounds that immediately had Ali and I both thinking of the movie Dirty Dancing. We camped down around the corner where the kids … Read More
Lowe’s Third
Lowe’s third birthday began with wet gray skies, and ended the same. None of which affected the party itself. The morning started off with balloon mayhem, as usual, moved on to Play-Doh for a while, and then the cupcakes came out. That’s when we discovered that Lowe has no idea … Read More
Kalaloch South Beach
In the continental U.S. you can’t get any further NW than Cape Flattery. And I love driving to the end of the road, so that’s where we headed. We stayed in Neah Bay where a few surfers were braving the cold to catch some knee-highs and everyone else seemed to … Read More
Olympic Peninsula
We bummed around Port Townsend a little bit in the morning, visiting a playground up on top of the hill in the area called Uptown. Seems like everyone with money a hundred years ago lived up here while the sailors coming through did their drinking down below in town. Lots … Read More
Fort Worden
We crossed back over to Port Townsend again yesterday. We hung around town for a while, had something to eat, looked around the shops, and then noticed an RV park right on the water next to the marina. Since we were right there we popped in and found that yet … Read More
North and South
The day after the fair we started moving further north. We sort of felt that since we were so close to the border we may as well go up and visit it before turning south again. It kind of makes things feel complete. First stop was just up the road … Read More
Whidbey Island Fair
Today was the start of the 90th annual Whidbey Island Fair, which sounds pretty grand until you mention it to a few islanders and they stare back at you quizzically. Nobody we talked to seemed to have ever heard of the fair, which was a little disconcerting considering we hung around … Read More
