Welcome to Washington — the collection of everywhere we’ve explored, splashed, hiked, and stumbled upon since making this state home. Whether you’re planning a weekend outing, chasing down giant trolls, or just looking for a pool deep enough for real swimming, this page is your starting point.
We’re working our way through the state one adventure at a time, organized by region so you can easily find what’s near you.

Our Sunday trip to Snoqualmie Falls was a whirlwind of excitement and chaos. We navigated parking challenges, enjoyed stunning views from both lower and upper decks, relished a riverside lunch, and tackled geocaching adventures. This family-friendly destination offers picturesque scenery and fun activities, making it an excellent return trip spot for everyone.
