The water was perfect, the food was great, and the sleeping arrangements worked out well it seems too. Abbey told me that besides her family she would give up everything to live at the beach. She was suprised when I said I think a lot of people would. She loved this trip to the water and Seattle and said it was her favorite part of the trip.

Pictures from our 5 mile hike on Saturday while we were camping. We were all ready to jump in the cold water when we got back. It was a hot day in Seattle, even near the water. The view was worth the hike, until some of us figured out you can also drive to the top!

Camping is not camping without smores, ghost stories and a fire! Aubrey fell asleep early after a long day, but the other kids were so excited about smore's , and a fire they were up late into the night.

While in Seattle, we camped at Hood Canal. It was awesome!

This is our first stop from our 6000 mile fantastic summer trip. We hike the delicate Arch at Arches National Park in Moab Utah.
