Last weekend Frontier Hubby and I went to the Seattle area, Kirkland to be more specific. It was a birthday party for my granddaughter who recently turned one. It was a great party with lots of adults with 1 year old kids. My daughter-in-law made lots of tasty food and my son made punch.


What is that Thing? Yes it is.

After a day's drive to get there, we were certainly not the party animals. We did meet some very nice people and enjoyed ourselves.

My granddaughter's family prefers privacy so I am not posting pics of the party, I did however take many pictures of the drive over on Highway 2, one of the most beautiful, scenic drives ever.

The pictures start as we drove into Wenatchee about 3 hours after we left home. Including East Wenatchee, population is just over 40,000. The Columbia River divides the two, east from west.

The drive takes about 5 hours from Aeneas Valley with just gas stops. I put the pics in small, but you can click on them to see them bigger.
