Camping Trip to Nile, Washington

We went over to Walt's hunting spot and 'dry' camped for 
4 days so he and his fellow hunters could fix a bridge
and clear some brush on the trails
 We started out in cloudy weather, yes July 11th and still cloudy
 You don't have to wonder why this is called 'The
Evergreen State'
 Then going up Chinook Pass we drove right into those clouds
 Still had snow on the ground
 The temp was in the low 40's
 and on the other side of the pass it was clearing off
 Off and on clouds but in the high 60's and low 70's in camp
Chuck and Diane's trailer on the far right, then ours
 and Don and Mickie next to us and Tom and Sherry on the left
 Campfire between Don and Tom's RVs
 Notice we could have a fire in July?  They must have had
some rain over there this Spring
 The evening passtime after a hard day in the woods
 Pretty surroundings  with Chuck in the foreground 
 On the way home it was beautiful


 Can't beat pictures with blue sky
 Mt. Rainier from Chinook Pass
 and those green trees in the sun
 Mt. Rainier was covered with clouds from sea level near Buckley
but in Puyallup it was uncovered (right of the lamp post)

We had a nice relaxing time with family!!
