Yes, Fall has come to Southwest Georgia too!

Although I've always said I'm a Spring and Summer person, the older I get, the more I begin to appreciate every season.  See how beautiful God dressed His creations for Fall here in Southwest Georgia?!

Heading Back to Georgia




The last vacation picture taken was of Seattle's Mt. Rainier.  It was taken through the Airport window as we waited to board our airplane.  This was a vacation of a lifetime with many pictures and memories to carry home with us.  I feel so very blessed to have been able to witness so much of God's amazing creations and to share it with those I love.

Then, to be welcomed home in such a way was terrific!  Diane and David's daughter, Amber, and granddaughter, Kelsey, made coming home even more special!

Okay, I'm ready to start planning the next vacation!

Last Day in Seattle then We Head Home! -- Roaming from Southwest Georgia

Click Here:       www.snoqualmiefalls.com


 Reda and Shanti took us to lunch and to see the sites at Snoqualmie Falls (Don't ask me to pronounce it!) outside of Seattle.  We had a wonderful time walking, talking, and visiting in the beautiful sunshine.  However, there was a bitter/sweet sense - not knowing when we would see our little sister and niece again.  Reda heading back to Carmel, California; Shanti heading back to New York; and us heading to the airport to fly back to Florida and Georgia.  Thanks to God for allowing these precious memories.

Next Stop! Seattle, Washington - - Roaming from Southwest Georgia





Our journey then took us on a tour coach ride from Vancouver across the US/Canadian Border to Seattle, Washington.  There our little sister, Reda, met us with her daughter Shanti.

We spent three fun-filled days with Reda and Shanti showing us the sites of Seattle.

Vancouver, B.C., Canada - - Roaming from Southwest Georgia




Our cruise ship docked at Vancouver, Canada and we decided to take an excursion to see this beautiful city.  There were many interesting sites including the Capilano Suspension Bridge.  This is Vancouver's oldest tourist attraction, originally built in 1889, stretches 450 feet across and 230 feet above Capilano River.  Heres proof that we crossed it too!

From the Glaciers to Ketchikan, Alaska - - Roaming from Southwest Georgia


 
  After experiencing the wonder of the huge Alaskan glaciers, we cruised into wet, rainy Ketchikan.  As you can see this rainy day didn't keep us from shopping and posing to have our pictures taken.

Cruising Through Glacier Bay - - Roaming from Southwest Georgia



    
Seeing this scenery reminds one once again, that something this magnificent can only be created by God.  These glaciers were enormous and massive.  Pictures do not portray actuality.
