on seeing my favorite person

I headed west at 6:30 on Sunday morning. 

Then South. Then west a little ways again. 

Saw these signs and got really excited.

Saw this and got a little more excited

(click on the link to see what it looked like then...)

Saw him and REALLY was excited.

Look at this kitty's eyes by the way... two colors!

Good old Sage

We're together again! 

Farmland.

Carson was in love with this lamp. 

I love him, not his taste :) 

Walked to the park. Carson did some pull-ups and this is the actual face he makes. 

He laughed when I showed this to him.

Aww...

He made me...

The place he's staying (same place as last year) is up this little road

While Carson was at work, I got some studying done... in the sunshine.

...And made some "Red Lobster" biscuits

In this kitchen... which has much better counter space than our current one but fewer cabinets.  

And while they baked, I read some more

After work, we went to get a movie... and I don't know why but I've always found this sign hilarious

Work outfit

Um, Earl wanted to come along too. 

I'll have to post about our stuffed animals someday. We have a collection. 

Dinner.

Lindsay next to the wheel. Height difference? 

This was for memorial day, in the town welcome center. 

Well, it's creative!

"Take a picture of my head behind this". 

Have you ever seen such a huge dandelion? 

Carson loves to try and befriend cats. 

This one was afraid of him

The view behind the house... cherry trees and hills

  

...still trying

This is where he sleeps every night. In a sleeping bag on a mattress. 

Side note: Before we were married, he slept under a loft bed on a sleeping pad in a sleeping bag. 

So this was an upgrade.

Saying goodbye. 

I dropped him off at work at 7:30 in the morning and then headed back to Spokane. 

Columbia Gorge out the window

Driving down into Spokane

I've been back in Spokane since Wednesday. 

Bittersweet. 

And thankfully, no tears this time. 

That makes things waaay worse!

I have hopes of seeing Carson in the next few weeks so the wait isn't terrible.

Still, it's weird. 

And I'm not kidding, when I walked into our apartment I was amazed at how (comparatively) HUGE it is!
