Here are pictures from various trips I have taken to faraway (and not-so-faraway) places.

Found it! (Well, Kat did, as usual.) This one was way too easy, we thought.

This is a really cool sundial on the top of a hill at Gasworks Park.

The gasworks that give Gasworks Park its name.

It turns out there was another Geocache at Gasworks Park, so out came the GPS and Zaurus again. :-)

Under one of the bridges in Seattle lives a troll. This is also the starting location of another Geocache we did.

A wider-angle view of the troll; you can better get a sense of scale from this picture.

Ian is not as tall as the troll's head.

That's a real VW bug in the troll's hand.

We went up the Space Needle, like good tourists. Here's a view down at the inexplicably designed Experience Music Project (EMP).

The EMP and some of the amusement park, which seemed to be closed.

You can kind of see Mt. Rainier through the haze. (It's in the center of the picture.)

Our friends Steve and Sunny examine yet another Geocache while Ian blinks. This one was at the top of an extremely muddy hill; getting to it in the rain was highly non-trivial.

We took a roadtrip to Mt. St. Helens (and found a fifth Geocache on the way).

There are still many stumps of trees left over from the eruption in 1980.

The visitor's center, 43 miles in from I-5. This is as close as we got to the mountain.
