As you’re making your way back home across the state from family’s house, I hope you’re seeing scenery like this. This is a 1940’s era linen postcard showing Mount Rainier from Pacific Highway. Find the text from the unknown writer below and click on the images to inspect. Didi, how many miles did you travel for turkey dinner?
This is the highway to Seattle is a double highway all the way 3 lanes in each one. Seattle is 28 miles So of Everett.

    Miles? More like feet.

    I love this postcard. It’s very serene and orderly, unlike shopping yesterday.

    What sort of weird pinkish bacterial/fungal growth is going on back there on that meadow? Frolic in the meadow, I will not.

    Pink fungus? Perhaps it is just a lovely field of wildflowers.
