We said YES.

So sorry for the break, it was totally unintentional.
Time just got away from me once again.
Since that last time I posted we have had some changes.
As you may or may not know, we are campground hosts for a state park
in Washington state.  And we are loving it.
This gig was suppose to last us one month.

Well they must like us because they asked us to stay another
two months..  OK.. Maybe its not because they like us that much.
The other hosts did not show up.  So they asked us to stay.

We may be a bit crazy but we said yes.
The problem is that we are going to miss the holidays 
with our families and friends.
Insert SAD face here. 




 When you wake up and you see an orange glow coming through the
bedroom window, you know it has to be a beautiful sunrise.
I probably look like a crazy lady running down to the beach with 
my camera and my slippers on to grab this shot.
Yes I did have my clothes on..  I'm not that crazy. 




On one of our days off we took the drive out to the most outer point of
north west called Neah Bay.  It was a beautiful hike.  The views did not disappoint.




 They had placed planks and logs along the path, which made
this a pretty easy hike.




 In some areas you would be hiking in water if the planks weren't there.




 We picked a sunny day for this hike which we were glad for that,
but it was still a chilly day, my favorite way to hike.



 You end up a the ocean with a gorgeous view..
I had a hard time capturing this wonderful view. The sun was
in the wrong place to capture a great shot.



 Back at the campground we put our feeder
up and we had lots of takers..  We have already had to refill it. 




I leave you with another shot of that gorgeous sunrise..


We will be right here at the campground for Thanksgiving.
We will cook our Turkey outside in the Dutch Oven.
And cook all the fix'ens right here in Big Bertha (Our Trailer)

We were told the campground is going to be completely full.
That means 80 Happy campers to visit with.
Life is Good.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I am trying to 
get around to visiting all of you but I am a bit behind.
But I will be by soon.  I promise.


Wishing all my friends in the states a 
Happy Thanksgiving.

Hugs~

Hiking White Horse Trail

So sorry to say I ran out of time and didn't get all
my shots in for Scavenger Hunt Sunday.
The only shot I got was the sweet shot.. Hmmm..

So today I am going to share some photos
of a Hike the hubby and I did.
Are we adventurers or what!



It all started off great.  I'm pretty sure we were on the right track!



We were enjoying the great out doors and the 
scenery looked beautiful.  Well should I say as Beautiful
as a desert can look!



This trail is only about 20 minutes from our house
I had no idea it was even here..
The canyon walls were amazing.



After hiking for about one and a half hours the
canyon opened up and you could see the beautiful 
Colorado river.  The bright green tint to the water looked amazing.



That was not where this hike ended..  We scrambled up some rocks
for quite awhile and ended up at this Ladder. 





I can't believe hubby made me go up first.



Up top were these pool of water..
Hot springs.  The water was over 100.
No... We did not get in!  


Well it was about time to start heading back.
Lets just say my thighs are still screaming.
It was up hill the whole way back.




We came across this tree with this ball hanging from it
I have no idea what it is but it sure made a pretty photo.

So it was about a 6 mile hike.  But it felt like 30.
But I am so glad we did it!


Thanks so much for stopping by.

Til next time...

Hugs, Linda
