Mom says it is spelled C-O-N-F-E-R-E-N-C-E but that is hard for me to remember I am just a small tiger. We were in Seattle for a confurence! The most important thing at the confurence is to gets lots of yummy snacks.

Oh Boy oh Boy I got to see my friends Emily and George again!!!!  yay to Brian for bringing them with him!

It is also very important to go out to eat at a restaurant I LOVE restaurants!                 Ha ha Steve is making rabbit ears behind me!  And that is my friend Milo who is so handsome and Lisa who is so beautiful.

Also at the conference is Ed one of the facilitators who is super nice and handsome and has a terrific smile but is not quite as handsome as me.

And here is my new friend Ryan who is from Canada that is a different country!  Ryan is very handsome and is really smart and really nice too. I’ve been to Canada and would like to visit again. Hint hint.

We went to downtown Seattle for a couple of days. There were some unusual activities going on. Here is a giant purple monster or something crushing a police car.

Mom said it was a big conference for games. And some people dress up like their favorite game characters. I am a tiger I was not scared of this lady.

Oh  look a giant cat! Or bunny! Or something! No offense to gamers I just don’t know all the characters.

I was happy to get to the hotel where we were staying. We met a great family in the elevator. They were going to a show and the kids brought their bear named Pinky!

It’s been a super awesome week!  One day at work we had a potato potluck! Gregg roasted potatoes and everyone brought yummy stuff to put on the potatoes.  It was FANTASTIC someone brought BACON!!!

Then one day we had lunch at a restaurant with my friend Tracy. I LOVE restaurants and Tracy is so Beautiful!!

This weekend has been very windy and rainy. The back yard is covered in leaves now.

We went for a walk in the rain!  The new housing development near where we live has roads now but no houses yet.

Oh Boy we went hiking at Mount Rainier today!  It was such a pretty day and we have not been to Mount Rainier in forever!

We saw lots and lot of streams and waterfalls. Mom said I could only post two photos not two hundred.

We went to the gift shop!!!  Mom let me pick out a pin for my bandana!  Here I am back at home with my Mount Rainier pin and my Glacier bear paw pin.  Also at the gift shop we got some huckleberry chocolates but they were all gone before we got home.

We found some more photos from our Glacier trip that we meant to post but forgot.  This is from our hike to Avalanche Lake.  I found a fun tree to play in.

Here I am at the lake. The lake was very low due to the lack of rainfall but it was a beautiful spot.

This is me with a really fun family we met. They are Bengals fans and noticed right away that I am a Bengal Tiger!

Also at the lake there was a chipmunk that wanted to meet me. Can you see him??  He is on the log about a foot behind me. I was good and did not chase even though that chipmunk looked very tasty.

Wow it has been a really great week but now it is time to head home. At a rest stop we met Junger who has a super cool motorcycle!!!  I have told mom that we should buy a motorcycle but she has not done it yet. Junger was really nice and handsome but not quite as handsome as me.

We stopped in Idaho! That is another state!  On the way to Montana we just blasted through Idaho but this time we stopped.  In Wallace they were having an accordion festival!!  But we did not stick around because we were on a mission!

Our goal was to reach Leavenworth!!!  It was a super fun town where we had dinner and walked around. Then me and mom drove the rest of the way home while the others spent the night in Leavenworth. There were accordion players there too. Accordions must be more popular than I realized.

Look what mom got me!!!  It is a pin for my bandana it has a BEAR paw and says Glacier National Park!

One day we went on a hike to Hidden Lake. It is Hidden because you have to hike a long way to see it, and then you have to hike even further on a steep trail to get to the lake.  It was really beautiful!!

Here I am on the trail.  All the scenery is so fantastic!

OMG we saw MOUNTAIN GOATSl!!!  In the picture they are behind me there were 3 of them including a small one in the middle that is called a kid.

After that hike we stopped along a pretty river and got our paws and feet wet. Here I am relaxing with Nicolyn and Liana who are both so gorgeous.

While we were visiting Glacier National Park we stayed in a town called Hungry Horse. I am not making that up it is really the name.

Here I am with Randy who is so handsome and runs Fort Hungry Horse and sells all kinds of animal horns and antlers plus anything else you could possibly want.

This is me and Lisa. Lisa stayed at the same place we did and gave us great advice to go see Many Glacier which was a spectacular part of the park. Lisa is totally gorgeous!!

Hungry Horse has a dam!!!!  Mom does not like heights she was nervous looking over the edge.  I am a tiger I was not scared but I stayed close to mom so she would feel more brave.

And here is a picture of me with Liana and Nicolyn. We cooked up some yummy chicken!! to go with the vegetables. Nicolyn is Aunt Darcy’s daughter and Liana is Nicolyn’s good friend. They are both so beauuuutiuuul and funny and super smart.

Oh boy we went to see a nearby city called Whitefish.  Guess what was there??  A beautiful lake!!!  With a beach park!!

While we were in Whitefish walking around we met Debbie and her dog Scruffy.  Debbie was really nice and is so beautiful!  Mom thought Scruffy was cute and adorable but he thought I was a chew toy.  Scruffy is actually the dog of Debbie’s Dad who is in the hospital.  I hope he gets well soon!

We visited the local train station where they had some cool old train cars on display!!!!

Also we went out to lunch did I mention that I love restaurants?  Here I am helping Aunt Darcy with the bacon on her salad.  When mom has salads we never have bacon!  Tigers love bacon!

Best of all we went to a car wash!  It was the Blue Cow car wash and Mom says it is the best car wash she has ever been to. I think because there were really handsome young men to dry the car off afterwards.  We took lots of photos going through the car wash but mom says we already have lots of that kind of photos.

Today we went to another part of Glacier Park to hike near Lake Bowman. Look how beautiful the lake is!  Here I am with Liana and Nicolyn who are both super gorgeous.

Ha ha! here I am with Liana, Nicolyn and Aunt Darcy we are all looking at the lake. Also we saw another BEAR today!!!  Mom was able to get a photo but the bear was far away so we decided not to post it. Also I am not in the picture with the bear.

We also stopped at Polebridge where they had the most fantastic bakery!!!!
