We took a day of rest for the most pat today. Took a little ride up to the 2002 Olympic site this morning, did some simulations, looked at a couple of museums. Really lots of stuff for kids to do, some fantasy activities, movies, displays. Pretty nice place.
And that's about it. Sat around the pool, laid around the room, just kind of took it easy. Oh, we planned out the next leg of the trip. Looking forward to the next few days of the vacation.
Now a few things we have seen or come across that seemed just a little strange or out of place to us. First of all, people ride bikes on the interstate. Was awful surprised at first, but I suppose it's really the only way to get around in some of these places. They also ride all over the National Parks---don't know how they handle the grade.
Seen a few hitch hikers, haven't seen them in years. People just walking around in the middle of nowhere. Also have run across all kinds of roadside art, as well as the biggest this or that, or the oldest or the whatever. Interesting.
I've been fortunate to travel all over the country, but I really like the west. I like the people, the beer, the food. I like the wide open spaces---you can see forever. And so many natural wonders to see, places to hike or drive. Everyday seems to be something different, can hardly wait for the next day....
