Josephine and I decided to go for a nice drive today, and pack a picnic lunch as well. She, of course, did the lunch -- club sandwiches with ham, cheese, egg, and bacon (all it was missing was the rich creamery butter!), fresh cherries, and little tiny chocolate cheesecakes. We headed out 522 (aka Lake City Way) toward Monroe, where we picked up 2 going toward Stevens Pass. We followed that to Index, where we turned off onto Index-Galena Road. Driving 2 is nice, though there were a lot of cars out today. Index-Galena Road is really nice, and if you follow it for about ten miles, you cross over the river, and after that there are a bunch of places to stop and get down near the water, and a few campsites with picnic tables.
We also brought along part of Josephine's early birthday present, her new toy Marvin:
As much as is possible for Marvin, he seemed to enjoy himself, hanging out with both me and Josephine, having some lunch, shooting at the wildlife, and generally cavorting.
Brain the size of a planet, and they expect me to enjoy throwing rocks into a river?
