Jim lives in Vancouver, Washington with his wife June (she was not there for our visit sadly). After taking off from Seattle for our first segment of the trip, we had arranged to stay the first night with Jim, just 3 hours drive away. Baby steps, haha!
We had planned a single night there, but Jim offered us to stay longer. We of course said no, as we didn't want to overstay or wear out any welcomes. But then it dawned on us "why not?". So glad we did. We had a great time catching up on the years since we last talked, and got to see some of the surrounding area sights.
