In early August, Team Smelkins received visitors from my hometown in Texas. Sunshine and MacMan were able to stay with us for a week which gave us plenty of time to explore the area. We took two trips to downtown Seattle & Pike Place Market, visited the
EMP & Seattle Aquarium, experienced zip lining on Camano Island, walked the beach at Point Defiance State Park and hiked on Mount Rainier.
It was a full week of tourism and by the end of it, I was exhausted and quite a bit more poor than I was seven days prior. Truly though, we were so pleased to have visitors and I open-arms-welcome Sunshine, MacMan and anyone else from back home who cares to visit us in the future!
I'm currently at work (being entirely unproductive) so I don't have access to most of my pictures but here are a few from our hiking day trip at Mt. Rainier:
