Home, Day Twenty-Two: After school and appointments we were able to swing by the Sammamish Farmers Market. I love this farmers market because we actually see neighbors and friends, and also because the vendors have some great items. One particular favorite is the lemon curd bread from Georgia's Bakery in North Bend. The market is over after next week, so don't miss it if you live nearby! . . . #thegreatfamilyadventure #igerswashington #washingtonstatetourism #washington #washingtonstate #pnw #farmersmarket #sammamish #sammamishfarmersmarket #theplateau #dancing #georgiasbakery #northbend #band #eatlocal #supportyourlocalfarmers #buylocal #shopsmall #community

Home, Day Twenty-One: Western Washington is part temperate rainforest. So even through we've had an extremely dry summer, the moss, ferns, and lichen live on! I love how green it is here. . . . #thegreatfamilyadventure #washingtonstatetourism #washington #washingtonstate #northbendwashington #temperaterainforest #moss #lichen #ferns #forest #green #trees #pnw #westernwashington #westcoast #pacificcoast #igerswashington #homesweethome

Home, Day Seventeen: The Pacific Northwest is home to so many wonderful art forms. Totem poles are used as a way to record stories, important events, or family histories.

Home, Day Thirteen: Downtown Issaquah is known for the salmon who spawn here each year. You can find salmon-themed items throughout the city and you know it's officially Autumn when signs for the Salmon Days festival make their appearance. . . . #thegreatfamilyadventure #washingtonstatetourism #washington #washingtonstate #pnw #issaquah #salmon #salmondays #metalsalmon #igerswashington #pacificcoast #westcoast

Home, Day Four: When locals say "The mountain is out," it means the cloud cover has lifted and Mt. Rainier is visible. We love our mountain! . . . #thegreatfamilyadventure #washingtonstatetourism #washington #washingtonstate #westernwashington #seattle #seattlewashington #igerswashington #lakewashington #themountainisout #boats #pacificnorthwest #pacificcoast #westcoast #mountrainier
