    2026 Summer Bachelorette Adventure in Leavenworth

    September 12, 2026 - By Morgan

    Last Updated September 2026 My fiancé and I will actually be eloping in the fall but that hasn’t stopped us from wanting to celebrate with friends and family leading up to the big day! We live near the Seattle, Washington area and had always wanted to visit Leavenworth so I figured what better a time than my Bachelorette to make the trip? I had friends driving in from Central and Portland Oregon and family flying in from Denver and southern Oregon. Although, there is an airport in Wenatchee, Washington, about 30 minutes from Leavenworth, the cost of the flights and…

    Your Ultimate Adventure in NorthWest Trek Animal Park

    April 18, 2026 - By Morgan

    Last updated May 2026 I’ve had the opportunity to visit many Zoos in several different states. Whether it was a state I had lived in, or one I was visiting. This experience was vastly different. Located Southeast of Olympia, in Pierce County, is a Nationally Accredited Zoo, Northwest Trek Animal Park. After a 45-minute drive from home, we were ready to experience this amazing park in all of its glory! Plus, didn’t hurt that we picked a sunny and cool day to visit. Northwest Trek Animal Park The park offers many opportunities to explore and visit animals. We chose to…

    1 Year of Living in Washington State

    April 18, 2026 - By Morgan

    Last updated April 2026 In another post I made, I told you all about my move from Central Oregon to Washington state. If I could go back and make the same decision of moving to Washington state, would I? Read more to find out! Hiking in Washington State I will admit, we have not yet had the opportunity to hike everywhere in Washington since moving but this will be specific to the Olympia, Washington area. The hiking trails here pale in comparison to Oregon. The lands are managed by the city which means nearly every trail head has a gate.…

    Mt. Rainier National Park: Day Two Of My Exciting Road Trip

    December 7, 2023 - By Morgan

    Updated April 2026 Hopefully you were able to read about my adventures in North Cascades National Park! After spending a couple of nights at an AirBnB in Chehalis, Washington, I was ready to explore Mt. Rainier National Park. I was able to set out early and got to the park around 6:30 am. It was still too dark to really see any of the landscape or the trailheads. At around 7:30 am, I was parked, had my hiking gear ready and set out on a trail. I started out with Snow Lake Trail. Although, if you look up Snow Lake…

    Discovering the Beauty of North Cascades National Park

    November 27, 2023 - By Morgan

    Updated April 2026 In 2021 I had the urge to go on a trip. After quarantining for 18 months, I was itching to get out. Most of the world was shut down due to Covid-19. Thankfully, things were starting to open up again and I couldn’t decide where to go. I played with the idea of traveling abroad. The options were too vast. I got overwhelmed with planning a solo trip. I even debated on doing a train travel trip in the US but decided that having my own car to go on last minute drives sounded better. So, that’s…
