In years past, we have left the area much earlier, so we were surprised and pleased at how beautiful the fall colors were along I-5 as we made our way on this first leg of the winter journey. It was a beautiful day for the trip which was a short one as we traveled only as far as Monroe, settling in around noon at the Thunderbird Thousand Trails Park. The reason for the stop here was to be on hand for a gynmastics meet on Saturday in Issaquah. It turned into a nice family event as Gary was also on hand, having traveled from Washougal to spend Friday and Saturday nights with us at the trailer. We enjoyed Jaimee's events and visiting with Erika, Deak and the kids. After the meet, Gary, Ray and I took granddaughter Jordan back to WSU and then made the trip to Marysville to donate a bit of money to the Tulalip casino. All in all, a very enjoyable family weekend which ended with us continuing to the 2nd stop of the winter to stay on Gary's and Samm's property in rural Washougal.
