Ms Pris was eager to share her journal, excitedly showing me each and every page, and telling me in great detail about all her wonderful experiences. Just wait, Dru, until she comes home and tells you all about them. You are, I’m afraid be green with envy. You and Lois, Dru, just might have to take a trip yourselves.
Here I am back in Arizona with Vi and Ginger. I spent this morning greeting friends I made when I was here last year. I’m being made quite a fuss of, and you know how much I like that sort of thing.

Priscilla’s work is done and she’s leaving on the winds of another pineapple express. Off to stay with Vi in the great state of Arizona.

We had joy, we had fun, we had some pumpkin pie!
But it’s time to move along, fare thee well and good-bye!
A summary of Priscilla’s visit (written by Cheshire) and a photo (brochures of all the things she didn’t have time to do while in Washington!)

November 2008
Priscilla did many things while staying in Washington and these pages describe about half of her activities! Photos will be uploaded to her flickr account and she’ll be making future posts. Her travels are not yet at an end and she will certainly have much to add to her blog even after her return to Australia.
She leaves Washington with many happy memories, an appreciation of what she has experienced and an awareness of all she didn’t get to do!
It was a pleasure to have her company, and perhaps she will pass this way again.
All the things Pris didn’t have time to do:
the SIFF Cinema
the Space Needle
Northwest Trek
Whale Watching
the Pacific Science Center
the Freighthouse Haunted House
Emerald Downs (horse racing)
Pioneer Square, Seattle
Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium
The Music Project/Science Fiction Museum
The Underground Seattle Tour
Rent-A-Harley
Maybe next time!

The local news stations tend to visit the falls on these kinds of days too.

I couldn’t take photos from the viewing platform (too much mist). It’s off to the right in this photo. I had to move closer to the Salish Lodge to see or photograph the falls. It was magnificent. Wet but magnificent. Rain coat/slicker highly recommended.

Only days before Pris left for Arizona, the first “pineapple express” * came roaring thru and we rushed off to Snoqualmie Falls.

Snoqualmie Falls at flood stage. Over 24,000 cubic ft of water per sec is flowing over the falls! (10,000 is rim to rim.) Occasionally logs go over as well.

On 10-31-08, Pris returned to the Voki website and sent a special message to the Ravens in the Rookery.
