Okay, so where did we go after Nevada? Well, we had to go to Washington to meet up with Staci's family and attend a memorial for her grandmother Lela Brown, who had passed away.
We slowly worked our way north through Nevada toward Boise with Rose and Kameron in tow, and managed to find a really neat old farmer's hot springs on the way called the Bartine Hot Springs. According to the internet lore, an old rancher build the heart-shaped springs for his wife to take advantage of the spring on his ranch. It is long since abandoned and now is BLM land, but maintained by the BLM:

We made it to Boise just in time for our niece Ella’s graduation from Boise High School.
We then headed towards Washington for the very sad occasion of Lela’s memorial. Of course, it is always great to see family and catch up, regardless of the reason. We camped (moochdocked) in Lance’s driveway in Kent, Washington:

A good time ensued, and many great memories of Lela were revisited. Our daughter Crystal was able to come and attend as well.

The Summit Lake Crew was back together again!

Staci and I even managed to sneak away and have a nice 30th anniversary dinner together in Seattle! I love you Staci, and sure am glad you have stuck it out with me through everything! The seafood in Seattle was amazing, and the views from the ferry were pretty great also, especially of this lovely lady.

After a couple of weeks, it was time to head towards Colorado, but we always enjoy our time in Washington State.
