Blog? What Blog?

Friday, August 8th
Hello! Greetings to my personal buddies and bloggie friends! We are still gone and I have not been on the computer at all! It has been kinda nice to be so unplugged.:) We are enjoying our very long vacation in the Northwest. The best part has been to see family and all the kids cousins. They have really enjoyed their time. Other adventures have been fun as well. Today for instance we went to the temperate rainforest....wow! I felt like I stepped in to "The Lord of the Rings". It was beautiful and quite stunning. The kids loved it. It did not rain so we had a very pleasant walk through. We want to go back next time we are here and try to stay longer. I could not get over the clear waters and the amazing green plant life that grows in them. The water was so clear it was like it was hardly there...and yet it was. One of those had to be there things I guess.
So how are you all? I'm not reading blogs so I feel so out of touch. Please say hello here and I'll try to come back to see your notes. Rick's folks have dial up so it's not as fast, but it's not all that slow either. Its really just that I don't feel like being on the computer when there are so many adventures to be had.
I can't wait to get home and load pics and tell all!
Trish...how is my doggie? Thanks for taking on our insane pet! :)
Love to all,
