Pacific Northwest Road Trip - Day 5



Today was the day I was looking forward too this entire trip. I was going to get to meet Rick Moyer face to face. Rick and I have been chatting online for years and developed a very close friendship so I couldn't wait to meet him and his wonderful family.

So we got up by 9:45 and arrived at 10am at Rick's place. Meeting the Moyers was liking seeing old friends. It was though we hung out all the time. Amy (Rick's Wife) and Catherine (Rick's Daughter) made some very delicious Swedish pancakes with Strawberries for breakfast.

Only down side to our meeting was Daisy and Tess didn't get along with each other at all. Tess is way too excited and Daisy doesn't quite understand what to make of it. So the only solution was to keep the 2 dogs apart from each other. Maybe with time they will warm up to each other.

After breakfast we left for a trip to the Washington Rain Forest. It took us roughly a hour to get there. Again we were driving through lots and lots of forest. We got to hang out at the beautiful Lake Quinault. After that we walked over to the world's largest Spruce Tree and took lots of videos and photos. Next up was lunch at the Mercantile, a 'mom and pop' restaurant near the lake, and lunch was absolutely delicious. After lunch we hung out at the lake a second time. Next was a tour of a architectural very interesting lodge. After that we went to see Marriman Falls. It might not be the tallest waterfall, but it is certainly the most beautiful waterfall Harry and I have seen on this trip so far.

After that we headed back to Ricks house and a delicious pot roast for dinner. Then we hang out with Rick's family for a couple of hours. All in all it was a fun filled day and it was so much fun hanging out with The Moyers.
