Hi All,
I wanted to add that we will miss you all so much and we'll think of you often as we embark on this journey! I also have to laugh because have a feeling that these first two posts are a pretty accurate representation of what to expect from us in the next few months. Jeff will post beautiful photos, and I'll give an undue amount of attention to the food we've eaten.
That said, I am moderately disappointed that the Safeway sandwich only got a parenthetical note in Jeff's post from our Mt. Pilchuck hike last Sunday. In the true spirit of international travel, we woke up after a super fun night with friends and shuffled into a grocery store in search of some budget-friendly nourishment. And there it was: a glorious 15" of thick, hearty bread, slabbed with deli meet, cheese, and lettuce. For $7.99, that sandwich was a dream come true, and it was a worthy companion to us the rest of the day. We had part of it for breakfast in the car on the way to the trailhead, we talked and laughed about it on the hike, and it fueled my run down the icy Pilchuck road on our way out that evening, a glowing memory to match the bright wedge of high beams lighting my path. Alas, we didn't get a photo of our sandwich friend, but here's a pic of Caribou, getting ready for his visit with his grandparents in California!
