The Beauty of Washington (state)

I took at trip a week ago to go visit my friends in Kalama, WA.  I made sure to take my camera of course so I could take pictures and share them with you.  I am amazed at how beautiful it is out there with the mountains, lakes, ocean, etc.  None of it looks the same out there and there are so many things to do and see!  Mount St. Helens

The picture on the right here is at a tourist center about Mount St. Helen’s and where you can see it.  It was a little cloudy that day but you can still see it standing tall in the background there.   It’s actually amazing how it looked before it erupted compared to how it looks now.  They say that the middle of it is starting to form again.

Kalama, WA
This photo was in Kalama right beside the Kalama river that actually a lot of people travel from all over to fish in.  This barn happened to be across the road from where we were and I could not help but think it looked like an oil painting you see in a country home.  Not even just a country home but any kind of house! 
Redwoods at Lake Sacajawea Park
This photo is from Lake Sacagawea Park in Longview, WA.  These redwood trees were just sitting next to the lake.  They are ridiculously tall!  We literally looked like ants standing next to these trees.

 

Columbia Gorge
This was a photo I took while we headed up that morning to go white water rafting on the Salmon River.  This is the Columbia River Gorge that divides OR and WA, which is pretty cool I gotta say.

 

 

 

This is only a few from the handful that I took on my trip, so be sure to check back as I post more photos over the next few days!
