The flora and fauna of Mt. Rainier

October 14, 2011 by Beth Shepherd

I am so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. Mountains, forests, ocean and lakes–the Pacific Northwest is blessed with beauty from stem to stern. Here are a few photos from a trip I took this summer to Mt. Rainier National Park.

Some might fend off a mid-life crisis by leaving the comforts of their corporate salary to jet off to a deserted island. Others might buy a Jaguar. I’ve chosen to dive head-long into my 50s and beyond by becoming a first-time parent. At any given moment you might find me holding a camera, a spade, a spatula or a suitcase. Or my little girl's hand. Adopted from Armenia, she puts the Pampers and Paklava into my life.
