Packwood,
WA
Small
town of only a few hundred people and rundown buildings but very close to Mt.
Rainier which is our destination tomorrow.
We had a room reserved but later this week but they were able to change
the dates thank goodness. Sure hope the
hotel at Glacier and the Tepee can also change those dates. Anyway, we are at Crest Trail Lodge and this
is a beautiful place. The furniture is
dark walnut, counter top is black marble, complimentary wine in the evenings
and a full hot breakfast. Couldn’t
check in until 2 PM and we arrived at noon so we went in town (if you can call
it that) to a pizza place for lunch.
Today started bad with the kids fighting, the ride in the car continued
with more yelling between them (don’t touch me don’t look at me, etc) and then
I took my Kindle in the pizza place to keep Zoey busy and while in the bathroom
I laid it down and forgot it. When I did
remember I went back and it was gone. I
was beside myself and checked the car thinking maybe I had not brought it in
but it was not there. A silent pray went
up quickly and tears filled my eyes and I finally asked the girl behind the
counter and thank goodness someone had found it and turned it in and she had it
in the safe. At 2 we came back to the
hotel and checked in but keeping two kids calm is not easy; they need to unwind. We’ll go to Mt. Rainier tomorrow and I hope
that takes all day because there is nothing else to do in this area.
