4th of July Weekend

We have been in Washington for a little over a month now. It can be hard to get used to a new area, but we are both doing alright. Doug's job is going great, his boss really likes his work and has been giving Doug a lot of flexibility with hours. He can basically work whenever he wants, and get as much overtime as he wants. Its really nice. He has been working nights so he is home all during the day. It works out really well.

This is a picture of Mount Rainier from our apartment complex. I thought i knew what mountains were in Vermont, but they are nothing compared to the mountains here.



This weekend we went to Rainier National Park. We decided to pull over to the side of the road and explore the area just outside the park. This is taken off of a bridge looking towards the park.



We went up to the park with our neighbor friends, Mike and Whitney. The next couple of picture are of us exploring the riverbed in the park. There wasn't any straight paths across the river so we got creative. It was really fun.
