Oh my gosh! I just can't believe it!!

I took this airplane ride!!! I wore my "outer clothing" but there was no question that I was "flying!"

It is just beautiful here - lots of water and beautiful scenery. WOW!!!

And the day after I arrived, and did my howdy-dos with Ms. Claire's good friend, Carla (who lives in Seattle), and I slept right next to where Ms. Carla's doggie, Franny, sleeps (she likes me!), we went for a car ride to a really really really pretty place called "the foothills of Mt. Rainier." OMG what beautiful mountains and lakes!!!! Ms. Carla and I were just speechless with the views that we saw.

BUT BEST OF ALL, I got to meet and love Ms. CORRINE! Yes, Ms. Corrine is my hostess now, and both Ms. Claire and Ms. Corrine took lotsa pictures. We are gonna do a slide show for you as soon as Ms. Claire returns from her trip (Monday).

And I gotta tell you, Ms. Corrine is one gawjus lady! Wow! She is just (well, as Ms. Claire puts it) stunning, stunning, stunning! And such a sweetheart! I am so glad I am spending time with her now - what a magnificent place to be.

Ms. Corrine, Ms. Carla, Ms. Claire and I had a wonderful lunch at a lovely inn, and we all talked for hours. Ms. Carla agrees with Ms. Claire that Ms. Corrine is truly a treasure to know and love. I'm so glad I will see Ms. Claire again on the cruise!!! It was fun being in Texas, but THIS is spectacular!!

Look for the pictures early in the week!!!!

In Washington State, love from

Well!

What a shock that was. One day I'm in Texas and the next it's Washington State and let me tell you, the weather wasn't at all welcoming.

Ms. Claire, Ms. Carla and Ms. Corrine met at Elbe Post Office (that's where Ms. Corrine works a couple of days a week). We were going to spend the afternoon up on Mt.Rainier and I was looking forward to playing in the snow but that wasn't going to happen. Mt.Rainier had a LOT of snow and we couldn't get up there.

Anyway - we all went to Copper Creek Inn for lunch but if we'd been there a minute longer, we'd have been staying for dinner too! Those ladies sure can talk. We were in that restaurant for 4 hours! But Ms. Claire and Ms. Corrine had a lovely time.

And I found a friend too:



I was thinking about asking him to loan me his scarf and mittens but Ms. Corrine didn't think that was polite seeings as we'd only just met.

This is the three of us - we kinda took over the restaurant but the people knew Ms. Corrine and they made us very welcome - they even took some pictures for us:



Ms. Claire has more pictures to share later.

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment." Kate White

Gosh, I miss the little guy!

And I have surely found a treasure - CORRINE! That British accent is a KILLER!! And she is just so real, and so easy to be with. What a great roomie to have as we cruise the Caribbean with our T-T friends, including T-T, in the flesh (so to speak!)

More pictures after tomorrow, when I have a chance to download them!
