Mountain Goat beside the sidewalk in Leavenworth
My post a few days ago mentioned that you’d have to revisit my site to learn what my vacation destination was. Today I’m posting on A Small Town Girl’s Guide from a Bavarian mountain town called Leavenworth, Washington, roughly two hours east of Seattle. I’ll be rock climbing and camping for the next two days, and I’m beyond excited.
We’ve decided that if anyone asks us if we have experience climbing, our answers will be, “Oh, definitely. I Googled it.” or “Sure, I mean I read ‘How to Rock Climb!’” on the flight to Seattle. We’ll either frighten people or make fast friends with them. Either way, it should be fun.
Yesterday we visited Mount Rainier National Park. Our drive through it was fairly quick, so we didn’t do any hiking our tours in the park. Instead, we enjoyed driving our Subaru Outback rental car and the scenic mountain roads. So far, this vacation has been amazing.
It feels better than I can put into words to be in a different place, with my mind on completely different things that it’s on day-to-day in my small town Missouri life.
Since it’s time to head out on our climbing trip, it’s possible that the next time you read a post from me, it’s a post recounting my experiences in Leavenworth ER.
Until then…

Are you serious about the rock climbing stuff? Well, the other thing you can say to people, now that you’re in Washington, is: “Well, we’ve tried it out on the REI rock wall…”
Next time you are going to Leavenworth, drop by our site first to see what is happening in town. We’ve built a site with a whimsical tone from a tourist’s point of view. We have a blog of our travels and things we’ve found there that we like.
