Dallas doesn't compare to Seattle.
The view from my room at the conference. Yep. That's the Puget Sound. Ocean. Olympic mountain range (barely visible) in the background.
Mt. Rainier was this direction. Might be too light to see. But notice the colors? Blue water, green pointy trees, blue sky, green grass!
I walked a trail that included 180 stairs down to the beach at high tide. And back up. Good exercise for baby and I!
Just another reason (as if we needed more).
