On our final morning at Bainbridge, we woke up to a beautiful sunny day and a majestic view of Mt. Rainier looming in the distance. 

These shots were taken right from Wheels’ back yard.

Prior to our departure, we decided to take some short rides on Blue, the Burn’s pony.

After some pony rides, we jumped on the ferry and made our way over to Seattle en route for British Columbia and the Whistler area. 

Nothing like a nice view of the Seattle skyline.

After a peaceful night’s stay at the Burn’s family house, we woke up and made our way to Seattle via the ferry.

After a short ride, we were greeted by Wheel’s father, Mike. Jumping in the car, we made our way to a nearby airstrip where a B-24 Bomber awaited our arrival. 

This beauty of a plane goes by the name of Witchcraft, and is the only current operating B-24 in the world. Wheel’s Uncle Pat and his lovely girlfriend Sherri were also on hand to take part in this exciting Monday adventure. 

Mike and Uncle Pat’s father flew a total of 44 flights during WWII in one of these very planes. 44 flights into combat!

After today, Wheels and Keri have done a total of one flight in a B-24.

Witchcraft also came fully rigged with some serious WWII weaponry. Unfortunately there wasn’t any ammo.

After a quick tutorial, the crew was ready to take off.

Uncle Pat and Sherri cozied up in some comfortable floor seating prior to liftoff.

Once we were in the air, we were free to move about the plane. Witchcraft was our new playground, ready to be explored.

To get from one end of the plane to the other, we had to squeeze down this narrow catwalk. Notice the bombs on either side. Don’t worry, we didn’t drop them…

Keri crawls down to a lower turret to take an aerial look of Seattle. 

Wheels was rather excited to see her home, Bainbridge Island. Who wouldn’t be?

After our eventful morning flight, we roamed the streets of Seattle, taking a short lunch break to eat some delicious Ivar’s for the second time in two days. I got a double walking.If that doesn’t make any sense to you, make sure to check out Ivar’s the next time you’re in Seattle. 

After our day-trip to Seattle, we returned to the lovely Burn’s residence for a true PNW dinner of grilled salmon. This is a little self portrait I took of myself while swinging on one of the best rope swings ever created.

Wheel’s mother Darden was nice enough to play the piano for us following dinner. Be sure to check for her music in our upcoming video release.

Following the piano recital we spent some time relaxing around the house.

In addition to the best rope swing ever created, the Burn’s also have the best swing-set ever created.

After an adventurous swinging experience, we made our way to town to grab some ice cream and check out the sunset. What a perfect way to end the best day, ever…

Tomorrow we plan to wake up early and ride some ponies, play with chickens, and then head for Whistler. Be sure to check back in the near future for further updates.

At roughly 10:00 AM, Keri and I began our adventure up to Whistler, BC. Rather than doing the originally planned coastal route, we did a straight whole shot up to Seattle, WA on route 5 to visit with my good friend Amelia “Wheels” Burns and some of her family. Arriving in Seattle by 1:30 PM, Keri and I had some time to kill while we waited for Wheels. Having never really been to Seattle, we immediately directed ourselves towards the Space Needle and the surrounding Seattle Center.

Keri stands below a towering tower of fun.

We found parts of the Seattle Center rather interesting as we crossed paths with robots and other strange sites. After some time exploring the area, Wheels made it to Seattle and encouraged us to head down to Freemont to check out their Summer Solstice event that was going on.

Boy, oh boy, was the festival exciting. We roamed the streets for a few hours, taking in the sites to be seen, and exploring the Summer Solstice. Ian at the Cliff Bar stand recognized us and was nice enough to award us with a few packs of delicious bars for the road. Thanks Ian!

Check out this interestingly decorated dog; he was great (Sorry for such a mediocre photo, I was stumbling around in a hurry to snap this image).

After some time in Freemont, Wheels led us to the ferry dock en route to her lovely home on Bainbridge Island. We jumped on our vessel and feasted on some Ivars Fish ‘n Chips. 

The views of Seattle and the surrounding area were exquisite.

Simply stunning…

Here’s our tour guide for the next day, Amelia “Wheels” Burns.

Keri takes a quick photo of Wheels as we cruise towards Bainbridge Island.

Once again, simply stunning…

After a short ferry ride we reached the shores of Bainbridge Island. Wheels and her parents gave us a tour around her house, it’s absolutely magnificent. 

This is the view from the back of their house. Not bad at all…

Wheel’s mother Darden, shows off her beautiful garden to us. I’m rather jealous as my measly garden back in Colorado looks nothing like this.

After a nice little tour around the Burn’s family abode, we cozied up and had our first good-nights sleep in quite some time. This morning we head off to fly around in a B-24 Bomber from WWII. Yep, you read that right…
