After the lists…
…comes the packing.
Sonic moved first, he’s got a new home with Gretchen and Hamed.
Ewok goes next – as you can see he’s totally stressed out by the whole process.
Water Fight!
Thank you Sue & Jeff! A mega fantastic BBQ, bare-foot footie and water fight extravaganza.
Awesome River Rafting
Jessica organized an awesome white water trip on the Wenatchee for H’s cub scout den. Seen here is the crew of raft #3, ready for action.
List of lists
Old paper meets new paper with our fool-proof list of list of lists system.
There’s lots to keep track of.
Gaming before bedtime
Long summer days and it is, finally, light long into the evening – last Sunday was the darkest June day for the last 15 years .
Happy Birthday Ewok
One today, June 17th.
Happy Birthday to you
I went to the zoo
I saw a little Ewok
And I knew it was you
For sale
One pre-loved Honda Element.
B.C. to Washington to Oregon (many times) and back.
Mountains, volcanoes, beach, snow, rock and sand.
Kayaks to crampons to footballs and snacks.
If only the wheel ‘twas on the right side.
Last Day
F’s last day in Kindergarten with the amazing and wonderful Mrs. Ito
(and the wonderful and amazing Mrs. George).
We’re going to miss Bear Creek.
Big Smile
A beaming smile from H after he nailed the last jump on the Cedar Run trail.
Yes,
that jump
on
that trail
. Definitely, please, don’t tell Fay.
[No, I’ve no idea what my expression was meant to convey]
Back in the Saddle
Too fast on the trail and slip-slide mud around mile 8 = bloody knee and a slower ride the rest of the way home.
Celebrating
A little celebration yesterday after Ewok and Fay passed their PPST and PPAT tests for the Delta pet partner program.
Whoopee!

Netbusting
Netbusters in action outside again after a long winter playing indoor.
A mini-tournament down at starfire sports (Steve, take a look at the facilities there!)
Big big thanks to Sue and Jeff for coaching and organizing!

Wash
After a very muddy walk, Ewok relaxes in the bath (note the muddy water).
Later, he returns the favour by giving the dishes a pre-wash.
Mud
The trails were a tad muddy from all the rain we’ve been having.
Luckily, a sock kept some of me nearly clean.
Too busy talking
So didn’t really cook nearly us much as expected, so lunch the next day was egg-burgers!
A delight not sampled since leaving behind the land of B&Q burger vans.
Morning after
Morning after the party.
A warm (albeit Photoshop enhanced) glow, unfortunately not from early morning sunlight, but instead from the rain clouds diffusing through the orange telco-branded pop-up that Dawn & Mark leant us to stay dry.
Please play
If you can resist this face then the next step…
… is to constantly drop the squeaky ball at your feet until you relent.
