I know, a tad out of order. Working on that. . .
And some descriptions.
What? Are there duplicates?

Camping and Oregon.
Most of these are self explanatory -

These guys were having such obvious fun, I couldn't resist of photo! There is a horse rental place just off the beach.

I think that the happy camper in the background noticed me lining up the picture - and took a leap of faith!
us on the beach, with a happy camper in the background!
Evelyn was pretty entranced by this 'mini palm tree' plant that was growing on the beach. That's her leg. . .
Evie finds a mini palm! Christa and Evie at Devil's Lake Evie, and Lewis Evelyn on the raft a damp Evelyn
Kevin was kind enough to bring his boat and motor, and give the kids rides in the tube. This is the very brave Bailey, pictured.

Happy birthday Fae!
We attended the county (Skagit) fair! Yes, I did consume a double cheeseburger, heavy on the onions.

Ann and David
This is the stand where Ann will enter her pickled green beans, next year. She is a shoe in - very few other competitors in her catagory - plus the fact that hers are unbeatably delicious!
Ann and Evie by the canned goods
Evelyn measuring up to a very large tractor, and only the rear tire, at that...

Added some words to the pictures. (below)

Aug 07, 2004

Here are a weeks worth of pictures, hardly even sorted. I'll get to that. And some words about the past week, which was great fun! We saw the sights around Anacortes, celebrated Ann's birthday, took the ferry to Friday Harbor, Jake headed back to FL, and the Arts and Crafts fair started!

Boy, these are in no special order, apparently. . .
Here is Fae's feature in 'Teen People' Magazine. Can you spot her? (second from right)
fae's magazine story
A recent picture of Brett and amy's 'Hogan'!

Jake and I playing 'horse washers'. Horse shoe rules apply, but one tosses large washers into a buried can. This is great fun!

Fae, dancing with her dad at the Chicago wedding of John and Linda's daughter.

Several pictures taken at the Arts and Crafts street fair.


Anna playing her violin!

Looking 'up' Commercial Ave - at least ten blocks of craft tents, food and music.

Anna and Eric, wowing the folks!
