The Great Race

Just playing with my telephoto lens. The plane and boat are about 2/3rds the way across the lake. Then cropped

Big Ass House

Now here is a clasic example of bigger is not better. The pictue is of an new house being built on the lake. Check out the size of the foundation The houses on either side are already large houses 4000sq/ft + This new house is roumerd to be around 15,000 sq/ft. Now that's what every couple needs for a starter home. If you want a better look just click on the picture. Notice the man standing on the rt. wall of the foundation.

Lake Sammamish Fisherman

Lake Sammamish Fisherman. The weather has gone south for a while now and the fisherman (eagles) are out in force. It is always entertaining waching these guys. Today is Sat and the bass fisherman are shooting all over the lake in their FAST boats. Not near as much fun to watch, But still amazing to see fishing boats going by @ 60-70mph and sometimes even faster. Quite a transition from high speed to just puttering around on their electric moters and high tech equipment just to snag a fish or two and then throw them back.

Another Day In Paradise

 

Home Again

We made it home on the 5th with 1000 more mi on the odometer. Now its already the 11th. Scored on a new air conditioner none too soon as today it’s suppose to hit 97. The morning is spectacular still a cool breeze with the sun creeping over the horizon and all the birds and ducks greeting the morning. This is really what it's all about. Pictures to follow

On the Way to Spokane

Started out @ 0700 from Portland. We had a great trip from Portland to Kennewick where we stopped by for a quick visit with Aunt Eva and her son Mickey and daughter Blanch. Then headed to Cheney to pick up Isabel at Trudy's this was a magical place on about 10 acres. The property was filled with wonderful metal sculptures created by Ron. Their house was equally creative. All I can say is WOW! Then it was off to Mary & Bob's for a great BBQ. Then once again off to the lake cabin. As usal arriving and being greeted by the nabighors like we were old friends. All in all the whole day was a fun experience and well worth the 400mi drive.

Beautiful day in portland

The afternoon is one beautiful one. Anita Mary and Granma are out shopping. Liz is out shopping. Michael is at a animation confrence and Steve is napping. Life is GOOD

The 4th of July Adventure
