Road Trip

We just got home from a week in Washington state. Such a wonderful trip, though we didn't see the usual popular sights, unless you count--


-shooting stars at 1am while driving hour 14 on South Interstate 5
-a pair of swallows darting here and there and stopping momentarily just to pop grub into their baby's mouth
-a bald eagle soaring over the mountains
-Mt. Shasta cloaked in white snow and veiled in dark and fog
-a rare sighting  of the elusive Fairy Tomato
-friends we've known for years and friends we feel like we've known for years

And to top it off, our friends were married on Sunday, right on the family farm, in between periods of drizzling rain. A whole community had come together to build, cook, decorate, donate... anything they could do to help. It was a grand party in the heavenly fashion, my favorite.
