Not the Roadtrip We Imagined

Now I know from experience that the northwestern United States is beautiful. I was looking forward to driving south from Seattle looking at the mountains and the coast. But our first day out was less about seeing the scenery and more about making sure we could see the lines on the road and car in front of us. It was also a lot about staying within those lines and off the bumpers of the cars in front of us.

Day 1 was full of rain, spray, limited visibility, and mostly careful driving. What we can say is we made it safely to our destination in one piece. Since we can’t see the countryside from our car we are supplementing it with a trip to Cabela’s this morning so Autumn can see some wildlife.
