This much I know:  I will never again take an extended bus trip.  It was fun when I was much younger and traveling with my sister.  But 14 hours is too much!  Going wasn't too bad, but returning was a little more than I wanted to cope with.

Washington is a beautiful state, and Megan's new home is very nice.  Almost brand new, and it does have brand new carpeting.  Two stories don't bother Megan and Rowena, but they were a trial for me.  A lot of pressure on my bad knee, and I paid for it yesterday.  Had to take a Vicodin to sleep last night.

I bought a digital camera and took some pictures.  I hope I'll be posting some pictures here.  Right now there are things that need my attention, and when I get those taken care of, I'll write about the trip to and the stay in WA, and the trip home.

The weather suited me just fine, and I'm glad that the triple digits were gone when I returned home.  That isn't to say they won't be back--there's still August to deal with--but the respite was more than welcome!!!

I'm reading mail and diaries, but not leaving comments.  Too much stuff to get through right now.  But I'll catch up with y'all later.

Shalom
