"You know that point in your life when you realize the house you grew up in isn't really your home anymore? All of a sudden, even though you have someplace where you put your shit, that idea of home is gone. [...] You'll see one day when you move out. It just sorta happens one day and it's gone. You feel like you can never get it back. It's like you feel homesick for a place that doesn't even exist. But maybe it's like this rite of passage, you know? You won't ever have that feeling again until you create a new idea of home for yourself, you know for, for your kids, for the family you start; it's like a cycle or something."

What on earth were you doing in Wenatchee WA? My wife is from Eltopia, north of Pasco, so I've often heard of Wenatchee. Just curious. Good pics though.
What? Didn't you know Wenatchee's the hottest tourist destination these days? Somebody's been off the west coast too long.
So Mom & Dad flew out to meet me in Seattle for 5 days, and one day we drove east, through faux-Bavarian Leavenworth (think Solvang but kitschier and sort of desolate-feeling) with a stop at the salmon hatchery, on to Rocky Reach Dam where we went on the dam tour and saw the dam turbines and the dam fish slide, and then, looking for some fruit stand, we were practically out in Wenatchee so I insisted we drive through town just for the heck of it. We drove through Sonic and that was about it.
It was a pretty awesome field trip. I felt like I was 13 again.
