Mt. Rainier

So.... We went up to Mt. Rainier at last !!! I was so excited about driving  up there and seeing it up close !! And it was the perfect day for it, sunny and clear blue sky !!! Kayleigh, Alex, Lonnie and I drove  up and stopped at many places along the way to get out and walk around.  We went all the way to Paradise Point.

There we got out and walked to the visitor center, got something little to eat and then played in the snow !!!  We were not planning on getting in the snow, and had on our tennis shoes.. but it worked out and it was fun. (and a good workout !!)   We are planning on going back up next weekend to do a 14 mile hike.. it should be a long fun day.. here are some pictures of our first day !!
