Lazy Days, and Incredible Views
Hey, guys. Sorry I haven't been posting as much as last year. I've been a little busy, regardless of how ridiculous that sounds. We're on a huge vacation, on the opposite side of the country from where I WOULD have work, and somehow, I'm busy... sounds a little fishy, doesn't it? Well, believe it. Two days ago, Philip earned $20 by giving Mom a pedicure and a foot massage (Philip says he just did it for the money), while I worked on shining the truck's chrome details (such as the bumper - as of now, one can clearly see their face in it) and taking the dog on walks. Yesterday, after about three hours of driving, we arrived at the Olympic Peninsula, home of - you guessed it - Olympic National Park. Lack of creativity aside, Olympic is astoundingly beautiful. From the snow-capped peaks to its lush, teeming rainforests, Olympic seemed to have a bit of everything. It had snow, so Philip and I could paste each other with snowballs. It had great picture potential, which we took advantage of. It even had deer who, having pretty much never been threatened by the presence of humans, strolled up within mere feet of the oohing and ahhing tourists, who had their cameras in hand and in action (I do not regret being one of said tourists, as the deer provided some of the best shots). Today, we hung around, did a small amount of work, and mainly just enjoyed each other, and the fact that, for once, the sun decided to shine in Seattle (not just this day, but EVERY day so far - unbelievable). I hope we're keeping you interested! This is Spencer, signing off. Stay tuned!!

I'm so glad things are going so well. Welcome, welcome to the sun, as my trip to Seattle was mostly rain a number of years back. Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
