Stopped at the museum and the transportation exhibit. The pictures of the horses and wagons driving up that mountain were amazing to me. Hard to believe they did that. It must have taken hours and hours because it took us at least 45 minutes on a paved road. President Taft was the first president to drive up the mountain in a 1906 car but he had to be pulled by mules part of the way.
Andrea and Shuff tried hiking but there is still lots of snow on the trails so didn’t get very far.
Lenny and Banjo and I walked around the parking lot. They sniffed a lot and liked walking on the snow.
A few wildflowers were beginning to bloom
On the way down the mountain, we stopped at Narada Falls. Water was gushing.
Here’s a glimpse of Mount Ranier when the clouds moved through a little bit. You can just barely see it (need to know where to look).
For dinner we stopped in the little town of Elbe, near where we were camped. There are railroad cars that are dining cars. Good food.
Came back to the RV and had ice cream, played Skyjo and Sequence and had wine.
Another full day. Tomorrow we are getting up early to drive one more time to hopefully see Mount Ranier. Then we’ll be on our way to Seattle. Andrea’s last full day with us.
