Mount St. Helens erupted on May 18, 1980. The effects of the eruption were devastating. The north face of the mountain bulged and then blew off. The resulting mud and debris flow roared down the Toutle River valley destroying everything in its path. An ash cloud rose about 15 miles into the air …

No experience of Washington, DC, can be complete without seeing the annual Cherry Blossom display. Each spring since 1912, the Japanese cherry trees have bloomed along the Tidal Basin. The original 3,000 cherry trees were a gift from Japan. A few of the original trees survive today. The beautiful di…

Several days worth of hiking and several albums worth of pictures. Hikes start along the beach, continue atop boulder fields and push on with woodland trails. Then repeat. Some bouldering problems exist but beware of flaky rock. Several hefty creeks and a river from which water may be filtered.

The Five Guys restaurant is now a franchise. It started in Northern VA and is now spreading across the country. When I lived in VA in the later 90's I would often stop at the Five Guys restaurant near Baileys Crossroads in Falls Church and pick up a burger with Cajun fries. We moved to Atlanta in …

The Gorge is one of the best places to watch a concert in my opinion. The acoustics are awesome, there's plenty of parking, and seating ranges from general admission to the Gorge Club Golden Circle.
I'm lucky to be friends with someone who owns Golden Circle tickets. This means I get to sit withi…

Taco Del Mar was started in Seattle by two men who went to California and saw these burrito joints on the beach that surfers would buy after a day of surfing. What he brought was the mondo burrito. And this thing is mondo. Sour cream and guacamole ($1.25 extra), rice, beans, meat (chicken, ground be…

You really wouldn't expect such great food from a place in such a small town. Let alone real authentic European food. This place delivers though. If you want European breakfast, or breakfast in general, this is the place to go. Come early or late because this place is ALWAYS packed! They have someth…

We lived in south Alexandria near the Mount Vernon Estate, home of George and Martha Washington, for 4 years. We really enjoyed our visits to the Mout Vernon Estate so we paid to become annual members so we could get in free whenever we wanted to go. We also enjoyed the benefits of membership, inc…

Kamiak Butte is, well, a butte. A butte is an isolated hill with a small flat top for those of you who don't know. This butte has an amazing view of the Palouse region, a one of a kind place in the world with rolling hills full of wheat and many buttes. It cost $2 to park for as long as you want an…

Being a stranger in a strange land has its ups and downs. The headache that I hooked up with during my friend's wedding reception in Wenatchee, Washington had happily perched itself on the 'down' side of the list. Bending my headache over its knee and teaching it a lesson was a little cafe that …

This small little burger joint right next to the water is a great place to eat. They have an unusual menu (can you say Peanut Butter Burger?) with lots of choices. The burgers are juicy and the jack cheese taste so good. The fries are grilled, which is a change, but they are good. The waiters (mostl…

Before my visit to Seattle, Tacoma, and Portland I decided to check online for a few activities to plan around the area. Whitewater rafting has been a thing of mine for a little while, as in I've always wanted to do it, and as of last year...it's an annual trip in the spring or summer for me. I fo…
