LaConner, Washington


Just love the location of LaConner on the water however after 3 weeks of next to no phone, no internet and no TV we were ready to leave this place!  Also due to high concentration of trees (which I love by the way) it is quite a bit cooler here!  Think in 3 weeks there we never saw temps up to 70 in trees!  And this is summer? ha!

Ballard Locks

While visiting the Pacific Northwest this summer we visited the Ballard Locks.  Always a fun place when the weather is nice and the boaters are busy going through the  locks.  Didn't have much time to stay and picnic but enjoyed the outing just the same.The grand children are about grown and was fun to spend some time with the family.

Covered Bridge, Sunday River, ME

There is some sort of magical about these covered bridges.. this one seemed to be in the right place at the right time too.  It's a wonder how these bridges as old as they are; are still standing and such good shape... Love seeing them. This one was drawing quite a crowd on this "leaf peeping" sunday drive.  We were headed up to "Sunday River" a ski resort here in ME to their fall festival and made this stop a long the way.  Days like this are numbered here and all seemed to appreciate the lovely day.  Motorcyclists were out in abundance and it was the perfect weather for it.. The fall festival was fun and different.  A big sales boost was on for seasonal lift tickets.  They had a zip line but we were all too chicken to try it.ha!  and did see bikes being carried up on the ski lift and people riding down... a lot of fun was had by all.

We were surprised to have Earl III come down for a very short visit in Aug 2017 and took him up to Sedona and Taliesin West to see Frank Lloyd Wright's art school.  Very interesting tour and unique setting.  Of course homes are crowding in on this area now so not the seclusion that was intended when originally built.
