the ultimate catch up

it has only been about a week, but it has been a lifetime, two states, an island, and a new country. we have been on ferries, bridges, chair lifts, trails, kayaks. we keep being reminded of the scope of this trip, when we spend hours in the car but only move a few inches on the map.

so when we last saw each other, we were leaving oregon. well hello washington. we drove around the olympic peninsula into the olympic national forest.
it is not yet summer in washington.

there are hot springs in the olympic forest, and you know we found them.
sol duc hot springs. totally in the middle of nowhere.

sol duc waterfalls. pretty no? the olympic national forest gets about 14 feet of rain a year, which is why everything is insanely green and there is so much water everywhere.
also they get snow.







and that is just part one.
