The hot springs hot tubs were pretty darn cool. We could adjust the heat, we had them all to ourselves, and the view was pretty spectacular too!

Off to Sitka and Ketchikan!

It’s gorgeous here! Meryl and Holmes went for a beach walk with Xanna. Watching our kids from afar is so enjoyable; distance makes the heart grow fonder:)

And an impromptu concert! The table to the right filled with musicians that have a weekly play date and we were fortunate to eat at the same time!

And continued birthday celebrations! Life jacket safety in the parking lot is optional.

Our rental house is built on top of a rock!

With the volcano, Mount Edgecumbe, out yonder, which hasn’t erupted in over 4,000 years but adds delightfully to our sunset view all the same!

Also enjoyable:)

Letting driftwood drift…again?

Off to camp and school! Cheers to a summer ahead of trying to bike as much as we can.

Meryl’s camp this week was Candyology at the Pacific Science Center…yep, the science of making candy! Pretty sweet week:) With after camp meanderings around Seattle Center too!

We keep finding higher play structures around town and the kids keep climbing higher!

Our neighbors have a strawberry farm and shortcake stand underneath the Space Needle…it’s prime time for summer visits!
