My parents came up to see me from Oklahoma, and the weather report was for beautiful sunny weather the whole time. Then a fog rolled in earlier in the week and stayed in the lowlands and created an inversion zone. So down in Tacoma the weather was gray, cloudy, and a cool 38°F, and up at 5000 feet it was sunny, clear, and a warm 55°F. We spent Sunday afternoon walking around the Paradise area. We got up a little bit, and we got great views of Mt. Rainier. We didn't do much, and I wasn't sure my dad enjoyed it. My mom did. We stayed the night down in Longmire at the National Park Inn. It was my favorite part of their visit.
Orchid: Sharing the sacred mountain with my mom and dad.
