Part of Monday - Mostly Tuesday in the rainy state.

So when we made it to Aunt Fran and Uncle Wayne's house on Monday. they had a wonderful meal for us. of VERY fresh samon
The house - they built it all them selves - down to every last blank they sanded themselves.
The garage were Uncle Wayne does all of his fishing preparations. I guess i should explain Uncle Wayne is a HUGE fisher guy. He use to lead fishing expeditions in alaska. He fishes all the time.

Fish eggs = bait.




Lauren - Uncle Wayne - Aunt Fran - Charlie standing near the garage.
Our car.
Front yard.
So unlike most guys, Uncle Wayne was okay with me going on a fishing expedition with him and Charlie. This is the boat we will be taking out.
Sometime around 5am Tuesday morning their mail box got killed took this huge pole right out of concrete and bent the top.
As soon as you walk in the house to your left to go upstairs.
Directly in front of you is the kitchen and dining room.
To your right is the living room. all of the animals on the walls were all killed (and eaten) by them.
Room were Lauren, Charlie and me stayed.
So we headed Tuesday morning around 9am we headed for Aunt Clinetta and Uncle Carle's house about a 6 hour drive. We stopped at deltaco for breakfast.
We drove through some awesome country side. (rocky mountains)
And at a rest stop
We used the restroom....
..........
Fall colors starting to come out!
There Lauren and Charlie switched so Charlie could sleep.
Some countryside.
So we went from the mountains to slightly less montains with some green to brown hillys things...
We randomly hit water in the middle of nowhere
We stopped on top of a hill the winds were blowing about 45mph...

Charlie trekked up the mountainside to see some metal horses that someone built - in the middle of nowhere on a mountain top. (see a few pictures down)


The metal horse monuments.


Me on the windy mountain.



So we kept driving....
Into a sand storm...

See the brown? this means we are in the middle of the DESERT.

The pink was what we were supposed to be on. We were on the major road below it...
We apparently took a wrong turn and took a 2 hour deture through the desert!
We drove from what felt like one side of Washington to the other....and the changes in the scenery were so drastic that i felt like i had been through several different sates.
We FINALLY made it to Clinettas and we started right off for dinner at the local casino...
After eating dinner we got to see the machine Carl and just won 20,000 dollars on a few days before.
On our way home from dinner we took the long way or "the loop" to see if we could find some wildlife. We saw 15 deer and a lot of pretty scenery.





like i said a lot..




Charlie pointed out every cow we ever drive past. so this picture is for him.



After we finished the loop. we chilled at aunt Clinettas house i worked on pictures and Lauren showed Clinetta wedding pictures.

I headed of bed early - stay tuned Wednesdays adventures will be up momentarily.
