My room at the Best Western.

We were lucky enough to get neighboring  rooms!

I have a view of the lake. There is a sliding glass door, but it has been bolted shut. I do look forward to looking out at the lake in the morning.

I have a king size bed. When I sleep tonight I'm going to cover as much space, on this king size bed, as possible!

I turned the heat on too. Yay heat! 

Dinner in Paradise!

That is the name of the restaurant, Paradise.

The restaurant is connected to the motel. Grandma Jackie told me the restaurant was quite good, but I felt cautious.sge said they have good martinis as well.

We had to walk down a long hallway to get there. I think it tired Boppa out a bit.

Our waitress was named Lizbeth. She had been working there for 20 years! Why? I can't imagine. She defiantly knew costumer service. I'm sure she could work some where else, but maybe there isn't much in Moses Lake.

I wonder why she chose to live here. I over heard her telling a customer she was from Denmark. Why move from "The happiest country on earth." To Moses Lake, to work at Paradise Resturant, attatched to a best Western!?!?!?

The food wasn't bad actually. And the Martini? Well, it was perfect.

Arrival in Moses Lake!

We are staying at the Best Western on the lake. My grandmother says this motel is very old, but they are slowly fixing it up. First thing I noticed upon arrival was the large amount of stray cats.someone must be feeding them, but not feeding them enough.

There is a pool outside. But it is not open. It doesn't matter to me. It's too cold anyhow.

Third stop: "I see windmills on your horizon"

I didn't realize how much I missed this high desert terrain. I must visit Santa Fe again. Though it was aufully cold and windy!

Boppa seemed a bit tired and cranky when we arrived at the rest stop. But his mood has perked up a little now.

Grandma Jackie and I stretched at the rest stop. We were both feeling a bit sore.

The quote in the headline is from "The Milagros Bean Feild War". Only one of my favorite movies ever! A must see, in my opinion.

Second stop: rest stop near Lake Easton

The rest stop was very small and had only two restrooms. We all ate, Boppa and Jackie had cheese, grapes and apple sauce. I ate yogurt, and a pear.

We saw fog and snow in the mountains.

I found it far to cold.

Boppa has perked up a bit. He's cracking jokes, and reading the map.

First stop: Arlington rest stop

Our first stop was at a rest stop in Arlington. The air was cold and moist, with a constant drizzle.

Boppa and I did a little dance together. We sat on the bench and kicked our legs in unison, while I hummed a little tune.

Ps. WSP, I love the Ad!

We begin our journey!

I have been brought along for my grandparents yearly trek to the Spokane seed company board meeting.

We will be taking many stops along the way, and I intend to take many photos.

We just started on the I5 headed south. 

My grandfather, who I call Boppa, seems mostly cold and sleepy. My grandmother is driving. I wish I had a license right now.
