On our 2007 Northwest Trip we borrowed some friend’s Travelocity Gnome and took him on an adventure…
Stay Smart - I feel smarter already... (05/24/07)
Gnorm and Queen Charlotte - It kind of looks like the good Queen is getting blown off her pedestal by some jet exhaust. (05/25/07)
Gnorm and a PT Cruiser - The Chrysler PT Cruiser is the official car of the Gnomes. (05/25/07)
Gnorm and Baby James - Gnorm and Baby James sort of hit it off, what with both of them being little people and all. (05/26/07)
Gnome Train - The Amtrak Cascades pulls into Seattle and Gnorm considers getting on board. (05/27/07)
Gnorm's Short Haul Transport - Gnorm has his very own special made foam lined travel case, but for quick, short trips he rides in Donna's purse. (05/27/07)
Gnorm, an Eagle and the Space Gneedle - The red object in the background is Alexander Calder's Eagle sculpture completed in 1971 and weighs 6 tons. The tall pointy thing is the Space Gneedle and was built for the 1962 World's Fair and weighs 9,550 tons. It is impolite to ask a gnome his age or weight.... (05/27/07)
Naked Pigs - These pigs created quite a stir in Snohomish when this BBQ place opened up. Gnorm wanted to see what all the hulabaloo was about. (05/28/07)
Gnorm Down On The Farm - Gnorm guards the pasture from intruders. (05/28/07)
Gnorm Has A Slice - Gnorm recommends the Paradise Pie from Maltby (WA) Pizza & Pasta. (05/28/07)
Gnorm Horsing Around - With Gnorm's size and weight he would make a perfect jockey, if only these horses didn't get so sweaty when they ran. (05/28/07)
Gnorm and the Chained Up Giant Rooster - Of course roosters don't sweat, so Gnorm could ride them, but this one was chained up so he couldn't get very far. (05/26/07)
Gnorm Enjoys A Canadian 7UP - A refreshing drink is enjoyed on the inside balcony of the Aston Pacific Inn, Surrey, BC Canada. (05/29/07)
Gnorm and White Rock - The reason the town of White Rock, BC got its name 50 years ago. I guess it was white-ish in the beginning, but now they paint it white every year. (05/29/07)
Gnorm the Mountie - Sargent Gnorm of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police at your service - We always get our gnome. (05/30/07)
Gnorm Rides the Ferry - Gnorm rides the Queen of Victoria from Tsawwassen to Swartz Bay. (05/30/07)
Mr. Gnorm Goes To Parliment - Victoria is the capital of Province of British Columbia, Canada and has this big ol' Parlimentary House to prove it. (05/31/07)
Gnorm and Hurricane Ridge - Hurricane Ridge in the Olympic Gnational Park is well worth the 18 mile drive one way, but don't forget your little blue coat because it gets chilly up there. (05/31/07)
Gnorm and Snow - At the top of Hurricane Ridge in the Olympia Gnational Park there was still a bit of snow on the ground even though the temperature was near 70 degrees. (05/31/07)
Gnorms Ancestral Home - Elves aren't the only ones that live in hollow trees. Gnorm visits his childhood home on the Olympic peninsula in western Washington state. (05/31/07)
Gnorm and A Big Cedar - Seems like about every 100 miles anywhere you go in western Washington there is a sign pointing off the road proclaiming "Big Cedar Tree." We stopped at one. (06/01/07)
Gnorm Phones Home - Part way through the trip Gnorm got homesick, so he called home. Nobody answered, so he was a little despondent until we bought him a treat. (06/01/07)
The Seattle King Gnome - You don't a better view of the Seattle skyline than the one from the ferry from Bainbridge Island. If you look very carefully you can see Dr. Frazier Crane's apartment in that tall building on the right. (06/01/07)
Welcome Home Gnome - We were just about 4 hours too late for Gnorm get his photo taken with any of the ?Smiling Faces? inside the SC Welcome Center. (06/02/07)
