Looks like they were standing in front of a photo at a visitor center.

I did the skyline this summer and I couldn’t even imagine bringing my 5 year old and they had a straight toddler. Respect.

Reply to In Washington, can an individual become a paid caregiver for a spouse? If yes, how? by reginaphalange360
Spouses can’t get paid, so if you wanna get paid you’ll have to get divorced. That’s what my ex wife and her new husband did when she was paralyzed by Guillain-Barré… she’s now permanently disabled, in part by loss of some fine motor control but also from heart failure and brain damage.

Reply to comment by Taikiteazy in What happens if I don't claim my towed car? by 420_Braze_it
Thank you man.
This is unrelated to this particular situation, but I do have a question for you; is it normal for a tow truck operator to demand cash (wouldn't accept any other form of payment) of 250$ "because it's already hooked up to my truck?" And tell me if I didn't get it in 30 minutes he was going to drive off with my car and I'd have to pay more to get it out of the tow yard? I had that happen to me once because I accidentally parked in the wrong spot at an apartment complex I used to live at. I've always wondered if the tow truck operator was swindling me and pocketed the cash himself. He seemed like a shady little mother fucker.

I'll tell him you said hello. I live in PT. I'll just shout it outside. He will hear me.

Ahh, Washington State is a very special place - I'm sure you'll be sad to leave it. I'm a long-time resident of Washington and have so many fond memories of family trips to Seattle and other parts of the state. I remember one trip in particular when we visited the Space Needle and had lunch at a nearby park - it was glorious!

I worked as a tow truck driver for a couple years. The easiest and cheapest thing to do is go to the tow company asap and sign over the car. They stop the storage fees. Worst case scenario for you, they charge max storage because you don't respond, they auction the remains and if there is still a balance you will get a bill.

I feel the same way. I moved here 18 months ago after 30 yrs growing up in the Nevada desert. Quite the welcomed contrast.

Downtown Seattle has its issue but so does every other massive US city. I’m glad you found the beauty of it! It is really amazing if you are optimistic.

Grew up in Spokane but travel a lot to Seattle over the years. We always tried to take highway 2 just for Leavenworth. Took more time but is a beautiful city with amazing cascade views. Also so many places there with bomb ass food.

West side rains a fuck load. Central not much rain. East side rains a little. I think that’s why people love here. It has so many different climates and biomes.

I’m graduating college in may, grew up in Washington state and have been all around it. What you described is the main reason I never plan on leaving this state. It is beautiful. I want to visit the world but I want Washington to be my home.

Since y'all are in Bellingham, I'd recommend Pixie Falls if you haven't been there yet! I'd call that one a hidden gem lol

Sure, this was taken near Panorama Point, which is the high point of the Skyline Trail in Mount Rainier National Park. It's a beautiful loop trail that starts from the Paradise area and is the most popular hike in the park. The distant volcano is Mount Adams and the taller of the double peaks poking out of the clouds is Unicorn Peak.
​
Here's a view on a clear day when I googled "view from panorama point rainier"

I tried to move here for more than 30 years… if the state has grabbed your heart the way it did mine, do not wait til “someday” or “maybe” or “later” to give it a try… I have been here only ~a year already and have huge regrets that I didn’t fight for it when I fell in love with it in my 20’s. There is never a bad time to recreate yourself; there is never a bad time to follow your dreams; you are ALWAYS worth positive investments in your physical environment, and you only have TODAY this one and only day of your life. Where would you like to be for each today? … blessings in your decisions… 😉😊

The northern part is beautiful, greener, and hilly.
