We rearranged some of our weekend plans and crossed our fingers that the weather would cooperate for at least one day so my in-laws would get to experience Mt. Rainier National Park. We live north so if we're going to make the drive down to the park, it's nice knowing you will get to see the mountain …

Boeing Tour and the Future of Flight
We moved to the Pacific Northwest for my husband's job. He's the North America aerospace account manager for an international company, and they wanted him closer to some of their major aerospace customers who are based out of California, Oregon and Washington.
