Good Morning Washington State

After a 2 a.m. wake up and transfer of cars that will bring us to Seattle (track work put those bound to Portland in a bus...an event we wanted to forego), we still awoke early enough to take in the beautiful views as we traveled through the mountains. We went through the longest train tunnel in North America which is 8 miles long and took 15 minutes to traverse.

Yesterday we traveled through Glacier National Park. That area is just stunning! At East Glacier, we saw the restaurant we visited 10 years ago on our family vacation where the kids were thrilled to watch the trains go by. This time around, we were the ones on the train!

  1. What. No views from inside that long tunnel? Excellent descriptions and writing as always...

    1. John actually tried to photograph it! We did a double take at the ghostly arches we saw on the sides of the tunnel until we realized it was the lens. Boo hook. Had the makings a strange, otherworldly encounter, don't you think?!😋
