On Thursday, Jason took a break after breakfast to make a quick run (not literally,we drove) to Mt. Constitution, the highest point on the island. It has a tower that provides and incredible panoramic view!
The family, at the bottom of the tower, which was an impressive view in itself.
Jonah and Dad start the climb.
No flash(kinda artsy)
Same pic, with flash.
The view...
The view....
Now inside the top of the tower, Jonah says, "gimme a boost".
OOOHHHHH...
On a clear day you can see Mt Rainier!
Jonah showing us pouty.
Gus, does it better.
How Jonah was really feeling..
Over there!
Spectacular view of MT Baker...
Down again...
After Lunch, we had planned to go to the playground in the day- use area of the park and then go on a hike, it was raining- but we went anyway!
For our hike, we went on a pretty easy trail that was par of the Cascade Lake loop. It was a pretty wide and level path, so Gus got to hike on his own two legs a bit, which he loved! Jonah was the leader, of course.
Hi mom, I am hiking!
Whoa, big tree!
Gus, wondering what we are looking at.
Heading on down the trail like a couple of Ewoks.
Oooh, sticks!
After our hike and a nap, it was time for the big banquet. This grand finale was a medieval style banquet complete with decorations, knights, princesses and no utensils- too fun!
The campers had cool "goblets"
Some of the counselors getting into character.
No utensils? We did get plates.
Thursday night was fun, but the kids went to bed petty early, which gave mom time to (sadly) pack.
