You thought I was joking when I said my tent would be used when we didn't have a home!

Niether Kate nor I had to work this weekend so we decided to go camping. We spent the first night close to the beach at Bay View State Park about an hour north of Seattle. It was ok, it was pretty loud and this one kid screamed for an hour straight.

But last night we found a beautiful campsite in North Cascades National Park on the Skagit River. A few things about NCNP: It is the snowiest place in the lower 48, it has the most glaciers in the US besides Alaska (around 300), and it was the least visited National Park in 2004. It is definately one of the most rugged wilderness areas in the lower 48. I can't wait till we can head out there with our backpacks.

They have big trees in Washington, or maybe Kate is shrinking because of all the hippie organic food. How do they expect us to grow without injected hormones in our food?

Future hikes?
