The boys left for Tahiti today and the girls get an extra week in Seattle. We miss them already though!💕
Sibling love is the best. He probably put her in a (very gentle) choke hold shortly after this because she pretended to sneeze in his mouth or something. Or maybe she tried to pants him again. Never know with these two.
The last stop on our North American adventure: Seattle. We met a few very nice people, saw a lot of great art, and ate some good food. Also, Pride is going strong in Seattle and it is one of the friendliest and kindest cities we have been to. 🏳️🌈✌️
Yesterday, we said goodbye to Thelma the bus. Our new home, “Hanavave,” is a 38-foot catamaran in Tahiti. We will spend the next 4 months sailing French Polynesia and the South Pacific all the way to Australia. All of us are grateful and excited for the next chapter.
Happy 15th Birthday to our sweet Stellie 💚
There are about 300 grizzly bears in Glacier National Park, but bear encounters are really rare. Roughly two million people visit Glacier each year, and more than one million go into the backcountry. On average, there are only one or two non-lethal bear incidents in a given year.
Today, we hiked the Trout Lake Trail in Glacier National Park. The trail led through a burned forest, a result of the Sprague Wildfire caused by a lightning storm in 2017. The fire engulfed 16,982 acres, which feels without end when you’re standing in it. It’s a very different experience, the contrast of the endless black charred trees against the fresh green foliage and beautiful wildflowers. We dubbed this hike “the wildflower hike.”
