It actually worked

What a fun weekend. I went up to Washington for a girls weekend with a couple of friends. The best part was that the friend in Washington thought I was the only one driving up. Little did she know that I was also bringing a mutual friend of ours who had come all the way from Florida to surprise her. Somehow we managed to pull off the surprise. The look on her face was worth all the subterfuge and teensy white lies.

Happy tears are so much better than the other kind.

Along with hours of chatting and laughing we also managed to do some serious sightseeing. Luckily the weather cooperated and the Floridian got to see some of the Pacific Northwest at its best.

Mel: LOLOL - I have GOT to look up who Mt. Baker was named for. I'll spit if his first name was Fred.

~C: love you too, my friend!
