Jeremy's visit home October 2014

Jeremy came home for a visit in October
and we went up to Manito Park
to see the area he grew up
Kinda rainy day but got some great pictures
of the Park
Japanese Garden 
































Had to go over to Coeur d' Alene
for a Hudson's hamburger 
So fun to have him home even for a short visit

Another trip to San Juan Islands September 2014

Lopez Island
To say I love this place is such a understatement
It is so peaceful and beautiful
and to go there with Friends makes it so much better

This is the view from the house




Went down to check out the Sea Lions











Back at our Beach, Rich trying to get Peggy's attention with stones




Our beach, Marilyn looking for sea shells





Skip and Kay headed out to check on the crab pots
they caught crab each day for a Big Crab dinner at the end of the week







We took a walk out to Spencer's Spit
Rich and Peggy



John and Marilyn



Gary and I



Spitting in Spencer's Spit



Took a trip over to Orcas Island



Friends having Fun!








Took our Bikes on the Ferry
over to Shaw Island

This is the first school in Washington State
and they still use it








Rhode the Ferry over to San Juan Island
This is Lime Kiln State Park



Roche Harbor 






I think Gary wanted to take this home with him




American Camp
took a hike down near the water
That is Gary and Rich standing on that hill






Back on Lopez Island
we took a drive and a walk down to a bay
the locals had told us about



Beautiful Bay
Look how clear the water is
Peggy showing us the Jelly Fish





Good Friends !! 
So much fun, we had to see how cold the water was
COLD






This was a local artist Polly, we meet her when we were at 
the bay, we were able to see her studio later in the week
she is very talented



Had a fire on the beach with our "Magic Fire"
turns the flames lots of colors




A sail boat stopped over in our bay



Last day took a walk out on the bay







We had some wonderful Sunsets
God is the Best artist
and we were Blessed to have another chance to visit this place
