Renton, Washington in bloom:

Flowers and trees blooming In my brother’s neighborhood, prior to flying with my wife to Vancouver, BC to take a cruise on Holland America north, through the Alaska Inside Passage, to Seward, Alaska, than on to Anchorage to spend about a week visiting family and friends.

Even though we lived in Anchorage, AK for over 38 years, we never cruised the Inside Passage.

This is our first trip to Alaska since we left an moved to Spokane in September, 2014.
