Day 5 mother-daughter trip: exploring Mt. Rainier National Park
Mount Rainier National Park is approximately a 2 hour drive from Seattle. The weather is not especially cooperative and the mountain has been hiding behind the cloud cover.

Day 3 of our mother-daughter trip and we’re taking cooking classes!
I am so excited for today! I somehow convinced Mom to take two cooking classes with me at the King Arthur Baking School in Burlington, WA.

Tybee Island and Savannah Murder Tour
R wasn’t feeling hungry this morning so I ate breakfast at the Turbine Market & Café which is part of the hotel. I ordered scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast and, honestly, was slightly disappointed.

Savannah – exploring the city
My original plan for today has been thrown out the window. Whomp, whomp. We were planning to go to Tybee Island but there is a storm brewing just off the coast and there will be pouring rain and gale force winds all day. This weather is uncharacteristic for Savannah this time of year, as are…
