In early December, 2007, we went to visit Rasila's Mom, her sister Cyrena, and her nephew Alec in Chehalis, WA. We flew toPortland Airport, then rented a car and drove the short trip to Chehalis. I decided I really liked PDX, because we arrived, used the restroom, picked up our bags, got our car, and were driving in 20 minutes!
Chehalis had just had massive flooding and I-5 was still closed when we arrived. We had to exit one exit early, but we had Rasila's GPS to guide us. We arrived about 8:30 PM or so and had a small dinner with Pashyo, then met Lori, Pashyo's friend, who used to run a bed and breakfast, and stayed in one of the old bedrooms available for the B&B.
Lori graciously fixed breakfast for us in the morning and Rasila and I took Pashyo's dog Kami for a walk. He is having a great time living on a farm where he can really run around. We then met Cyrena at the house she was living in and we all went to Northwest Trek in Eatonville, WA for the day. It was really a neat place. It was a ranch that collected wildlife and when the owners decided to retire, they turned it into a non-profit wildlife park. There is lots of Bison, Elk, Big Horn Sheep, Mountain Goats, and smaller animals. They also have Coyote and Wolf areas separate from the prey animals. It was well worth the trip.
The next morning we met Rasila's dad for breakfast, then drove back to Portland for the trip home.
Short but sweet!
