Road Trip Stage One: WA, ID, MT

We set out Wednesday on our way to Indiana (and back!) for Emily's family reunion (on the Campbell side). Lots of drivivng, but great company.

On a clear day you can see Rainier from central Washington. Now we know! Franklin was a great sport as we set out east.

Emily got this great photo as we started out:

Starting Road Trip... Now!

Covered over 500 miles and 11 hours getting from Seattle to Bigfork on our first day:


Including a stop in Spokane to say Hi to some of Emily's coworkers at Sacred Heart. Franklin enjoyed seeing Pam again:


And he was happy to hang out with family:

Grandpa Ray on the Swan River above Bigfork.


Gma Rhonda, Franklin, and Gpa Ray at the Mountain Lake Lodge.

And some old familiar sights, like McDonald Pass:

Great spot for a diaper change: who knew? :)

And Franklin met some family for the first time:

His aunt Marisa in Helena.


And in Butte, his cousin Eponine.

Nice family photo with Gina and Eponine:


So far so fun. And I promise I'll get some photos of Emily for the next post :)
