I love being a mom and I love my job, but I admit it: I would fish for a living if I could! HA!

From the parade down Iler Street to last call at the beer garden, the 2017 Moxee Hop Festival won't soon be forgotten.

Grays Harbor Lighthouse Is Amazing — Have You Been? [PHOTOS]
I have a goal to see all the lighthouses in the United States and for that matter, everywhere, before I die! I love them. Each one of them tells a story. You would be surprised at some of the history that our lighthouses tell right here in the state of Washington. They are truly incredible.

Remote Control Aircraft Are Fun To Watch — Aero Modelers Head To Zillah Saturday

You still need to see, but at least you aren't putting any passengers at risk. HA! There is a really cool group from Yakima that has a ton of remote-controlled aircraft. They also do quite a bit of charity work. The Yakima Valley Aero Modelers h
We Are Really Lucky In The Beautiful State Of Washington
I grew up in Wyoming and I considered myself fairly lucky. I mean, there is some of the best hunting and fishing in the world there. Also, Jackson Hole and Yellowstone National Park, as well. We used to go to them all of the time. Until I moved to Washington, I thought Wyoming was the greatest state. Since I have lived in Washington, Wyoming now comes in second.

The Best Rest Area Across Five States Is In Washington
I most recently went on a crazy road trip across five states. I started in Washington, went through Oregon, Idaho, Utah and Wyoming. Most of that drive on Interstate 84 is nothing but desert. Crazy boring desert. There is also a lot to see -- even in the desert -- but, sometimes when you get a little drowsy from driving and seeing the exact same sagebrush for 700 miles.
That's when you have to sto
