Enumclaw, Farm Country Washington State

We kidnapped Willie,
she thought she was going to the store,
little did she know we were going to the feed store
in Enumclaw,
and Doctor Jane and Becky's house,
and Chuck and Jerry's farm to collect eggs,
huh!
Probably the last time she gets in the car with us. We fed her at Frugal's best burgers anywhere around, you expect to see
Whimpy hanging out here
















Mount Rainier


Enumclaw, farm country,
the high plateau,
in the foothills of the Cascade Mountains


Many a pig, cow, chicken, turkey, potbellied pig, etc. were bought and sold here
by Chuck and Jerry
The World's Best Feed Store, we get all our feed here


Donwtown Enumclaw



A huge statue of an Oxen pulled wagon with logs on it is being built here



This horse was sculpted by a friend of ours, we were there for the unveiling





The Enumclaw Hospital

Jane and Becky's house, in Enumclaw










Chuck and Jerry's house, in Enumclaw The Lakota Farm





The patio between the garage and house









Willie is straw bossing these nests

Looking for a good place to lay


Busy pecking away

Don't think he knows Thanksgiving is a couple weeks away, doesn't look too worried

Smells a little dead!

Just a month ago this garden had corn 6 feet tall, pumpkin vines squirreling around underneath everything with pumpkins not as big as last year but still pumpkins, zuchinni to die for, tomatoes, and many, many more vegetables.The farm is on well water so they go down to the creek with these water barrels and get the water for their garden, the roof gutters help out a little bit also.


Picture Jerry on his riding lawn mower, Chuck weeding the garden, horses to the left and in the back, chickens, roosters, turkeys, three dogs and who knows how many barn cats.

Safarigrl - - Thank you... I so enjoyed your Alaskan Adventure '07 -- - Wow - - great pictures -- thanks for sharing. I enjoyed the bears, the eagle and their lady, the bus Restaurant in Hyder, the glaciers, and the glaciers and the more glaciers.... oh yeah and the pictures of those 3 moose that you didn't take because you were taking pictures of the guys getting buck or is that butt naked.... woo-hoo... that was fun!

I love a vicarious experience - - going to add to it by repeating the adventure in '08. Was there 13 years ago... I see things have changed somewhat - - Glitter Gulch outside of Denali is new. Thanks for the reviews. How I found your blog was I googled in the bus restaurant in Hyder because I had heard about it. And up popped your blog.

Your Washington friends, feed store etc looks lovely too. I just love it when Claire Chicken finds a nest. :) Thanks bunches... the hen @ Rayhoun.bus
