  1. Absolutely gorgeous pictures!! I'm sitting here drinking my java and I feel like I'm there on that beautiful, majestic ocean. It would be incredible to see the ocean and mountains at the same time. Yeah, we're jealous!!

    About the elk, yeah it did raise some eyebrows, but the freezer is full, so they're safe.

    The sand dunes looked like they would be fun to roll down, and exhausting to climb up, (that is for momma, atleast.)

    The city has to be San Francisco. That was shocking to see that Pro-Life sign. Was it in an area where it's seen by alot of people?

    Looking forward to part 3, of Mt. St. Helens and Washington. We'll keep checking back.

    Love and miss y'all,
    Java
