Building on what Orange recommended...

AND if you are really that into hiking...

Enchanted Valley ONP.

Permits are required.

It's an actual Rain Forest, so be prepared. And it is the most spectacular during the wet season. The trail follows the Hoh River up into the valley and it's a there and back unless you cross the pass (snowshoes) and have someone meet you on the other side.

There are over 10K boomers retiring every day right now... The RV industry is going gangbusters. It's a terrible time to be trying to get a reservation.

My husband corrected me. It’s the one in auburn on auburn way north. It’s across from the deli counter in the little round rack they keep all the cheese on. It’s on the top shelf facing the deli counter. It’s the cloth wrapped Taylor ham version. They are like $13 but it’s cheaper than having them shipped in lol. Hope this helps! Let me know if you get some!

Yep not easy. People have developed bots to grab them as soon as they are available.

Idaho does have income tax.

God bless the cool tree

oh right on. Next time I summit it, I'll look in that direction, lol.

Not yet but I many of us want to replace the sales tax with an income tax on high earners.

Why not ask where the bathroom is?

I love that neighborhood at the top of that hill.

No state income tax in Washington

HWY 20 is a seasonal road, snowed in/closed still in April

WA has no state income tax.

That was the first sign I had of COVID - was positive 3 days later

Make sure you're drinking plenty of fluids, it really does help keep all your mucus moving a bit better. (This isnt "triple your intake" or whatever, I don't know what your normal intake is, just try to make sure you haven't been neglecting to drink enough water/tea/etc)

You cannot see Dragontail in that pic, and it is not just to the right of Stuart anyway. Sherpa, Argonaut, Colchuck, then Dragontail Annapurna and McClellan, are to the right/east of Stuart. Sherpa would be in this pic but a tree is in front of it. Also, the Enchantments is the name for the high lake basin to the north of the Stuart range between Dragontail and McClellan.

Yes, you can.. But Dragontail is not in this pic, its several miles to the right of the photo area.

Also born and raised, I sometimes hear men’s room, but usually it is from older people

Our state motto can be changed to “WE GOT THE FUNK”

I see elk almost every time I head up the Dose. Love that area.

Centralia is not gay friendly.

Even more special then. They're Roosevelt elk, not the commonly found Rocky Mountain elk. You'll only find roosies west of I5

Same with Lake Stevens, it's insane how expensive housing has gotten.

Ask for the men’s room.
