Washington was SO much fun!

Hi everyone,

It’s almost time for me to travel on to my next stop. I’ve been having fun visiting PBandJ in Washington State. We did so much while I was here.

First, Wild Rose took me to get the boxes at the Girl Scout Center in DuPont. Two of these boxes aren’t even posted on Atlas Quest, so not very many people get them. I saw a cute baby fawn while I was getting the Daisy Low box. Wild Rose says it lives near there and is only a week or two old. Then we got the U Go Girl box that is on the nearby public trail. Wild Rose is a Girl Scout staff member, and Buggaboo is going to be a Daisy Girl Scout in the fall. That’s why they were so excited to host me. But now they’re glad they did just because they think I’m cute. =)

On Saturday we went to the McCleary Bear Festival. I got to sit with Buggaboo to see the parade. She just turned 5 and was wearing the princess tiara she got for her birthday, so we got a lot of extra attention from the clowns, princesses, and others in the parade. Right after the parade I got to sample some of the bear stew. That’s why we came to the parade, Wild Rose wanted to taste bear. BLECH!!!!! Being a vegetarian, I didn’t like it much. But Wild Rose, Daddy Too, and even Buggaboo liked it. Go figure! I can’t believe I tasted it!

After the parade we went to get the Unexpected Animals letterboxes on a nature trail in Olympia. While we were there we found a patch of wild blackberries. Much more to my liking!

Then, as a special treat since we were so good all day, Wild Rose took us to Dairy Queen to taste the Girl Scout Thin Mint Cookie Blizzard. Double yum! We had a busy, busy day. But you’d think all we did was eat!

On Sunday we went to Kenneydell Park in Tumwater to find two more of the Unexpected Animals boxes. And guess what? The mountain was out! But you’ll have to wait for my postcard to see what that means!

I’m having fun on my trip. I can’t wait to get back to tell you all about it.

Having a great time!
