Another Day in Paradise

Last Friday we fulfilled a long held wish of mine by staying at Paradise Inn on Mount Rainier. It's run by the national park system, and has better than expected food if not the most modern of amenities. That's all part of the charm though. We only stayed one night. As you can see there is a lot of snow from our unusually cold and snowy winter. The snowplow had built up some formidable snow walls. We asked about all the snow and the workers said it doesn't normally look like this in June. Enjoy the pictures. In the first one you can see our new Mini Cooper that we christened Allister.
