Leavenworth it!

During one of May's first weekends up here in the PNW we had a hankering to do some floating. For those of you not familiar with this age old tradition, it involves an inner-tube, a river, beer and add sun to taste. After an incredibly long drive into Central Washington, we finally arrived at our destination...the impossibly quaint Bavarian village that is Leavenworth, WA. There was lederhosen a'plenty and these intricately carved wooden signs for every business, including that adorable mom and pop restaurant called McDonald's.


It was very surreal, but we were there to float. and float we did.


We found a secluded camp area that was about an hour outside of town.


May also proved herself to be a worthy cook around the ol' coleman stove. I didn't think she had it in her being such a urbanite, but I realized that at her heart she is kind of a country girl.


Overall, it was a great weekend. Our first of many great weekends in this crazy place we call the pacific northwest. Come along with us, won't you?
