and travels.

Snoqualmie, a charming town known for the great Snoqualmie Falls, is a wonderful day trip from Seattle. I like to make a day of it when I visit. Here is what my usual day trip to Snoqualmie looks like.

Summer Trip to Portland, Oregon

Mom and I took a girl's trip to Portland, Oregon in the summer of 2023. We packed a lot into the 2 days we spent there.
