Default Olympia turned Longview mini gtg

I'm working on uploading the pictures now but I just wanted to create the tread. Man that was a Great trip we were pretty much by ourselves (my wife and I) at the capitol but then we called Evenrude (Stephen) and headed down to Longview for lunch. we had a blast after we ate we saw a yellow beetle in a nearby parking lot and hijacked it for pictures. its owner came out and she laughed I'm sure she thought we were crazy lol. then we went and checked out each other's beetle at a park on the Columbia while my wife looked at the scenery (I believe she thought we were crazy too comparing mirrors, hatch hydraulics ect. lol)


Were parked in front of the winged monument I think we looked like tourists cause a guy asked if we wanted our picture taken.



^details of the monument



We got there pretty early in the morning we couldn't even find the capitol building at first because of the fog.


Watch out for the ice!!

This is inside the dome it was to say the least breathtaking!

detailing on one of the lights.

The original design for the Washington state flag.

after lunch we found an unsuspecting beetle to harass and pictures ensued.



Stephen taking pictures at us through his mirror (I took this one through my sunroof)


some scenes along the Columbia

and a last picture of Stephen in his beetle before my camera batteries died (you can see us in the reflection of his beetle )

Stephen's pics and info are Here

There's no apostrophe before an 's' when you're talking about the plural version of a word. "I took some neat photo's!" is NOT correct.

Hey!!! We're having kind of a mini-gtg here in Longview today, we're about what.. an hour and a half south of you?

Should be 4 or 5 bugs here. Going to do lunch, and then possibly watch "Bridge to Tarabithea" in the afternoon

Wanna come?? I'll PM you directions and phone # in case you want to show up
