A View From Mount Constitution
The highest point of the San Juan Islands is Mount Constitution in Moran State Park at 2,409 feet. In 1936, the Civilian Conservation Corp built the observation tower from which this photo was taken. In the background to the right you can see Mount Baker which is part of the Cascade Mountain Range.

Lake Crescent Lodge
Lake Crescent Lodge in Olympic National Park was built in 1916. The lodge was originally called "Singers Tavern." In addition to the lodge, there are classic motel and cottage lodging facilities. The lodge also has dining facilities overlooking Lake Crescent. Relax in an adirondack chair, take a boat for a paddle on the lake, hike any number of trails, or simply kick back and take in all that nature has to offer in this pacific northwest treasure.

The Path to Marymere Falls
Just outside Lake Crescent in Olympic National Park in Washington state is the 90 foot Marymere Falls. The path to Marymere runs through an old growth lowland forest offering massive cedar trees and spectacular 100+ year old fir trees that tower some 200 feet above the ground. This is one of the footbridges along the path to Marymere Falls. I think it so accurately reflects the gorgeous green beauty that is the Pacific Northwest.

Space Needle Aerial
The Space Needle was conceived by Edward Carlson for the 1962 World's Fair. It was built on a 120' X 120' plot of ground for $4.5 million. There are 848 steps from the basement to the observation deck with 25 lightning rods on the roof. It sways approximately 1 inch for every 10 m.p.h. of wind and it stands 605 feet tall. The needle's elevators travel 10 m.p.h. and reach the observation deck in 43 seconds. It hosts more than 1 million annual visitors making it the #1 tourist attraction in the Northwest!

I am middle-aged. That alone scares the hell out of me. Work tends to get in the way of the travel desires of my partner and I. There are too many places to visit and not enough time or money. We strive to take 2 trips a year, one domestic & one outside the US. The world's an amazing place; we plan to see as much of it as we possibly can!
