Mt Rainier in the backyard

I wish Mt Rainier was visible from my yard but it is a short drive or walk away to where we can see it. I came home from a business trip on friday night and Rainier was being lit up by the sunset. It was an incredible sight to drive home with. I had the idea of going out to take pictures saturday night. Katie went out with me and had her own camera to take pictures. Alas the sunset wasn't nearly as cooperative on saturday as it was on Friday and the pictures weren't nearly as dramatic. Katie and I had fun watching the mountain and then watching airplanes land at the small airport by our house.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone on Wednesday and/or thursday! Be prepared for some cool weather!
