August #4 - Crystal

Rob stepped up to take my place in Ragnar, so we went ahead with the trip to Crystal to practice the runs.  He returned from the first run to get the news that they found a replacement, so we spent the next morning enjoying walking around the ski resort before heading home the next morning.

 C&N shared sweet candy grapes from their vines and 5 alpine strawberry plants. love their garden and their friendship.

E picking fresh strawberries!

R planted some strawberry plants in the rockery that C had given as a gift from her garden

wildfire smoke becoming an annual problem? this is morning drive to work.

E's martial arts camp.

 Alki hosted the 30th year anniversary of the SubPop record label with one big day of music.  R enjoyed the day with his son and friends, while i avoided the crowds chilling at home.  kind of exciting.

 R and E had a father and son bowling outing.

 bike camp was a hit this year.
