Jackson 's Birthday

Birthday party at 123 slotcar raceway

Day off

No school for Henry, and we skipped preschool for Max. Stayed the
night at the beach joyse last night. Wanted to find a good spot to
bike, so we decided to explore Jarrell's cove state park. Not a good
place to Nike, but fun exploring none-the-less. -Gerrit

Zoo breakfast

The zoo had a breakfast for members, so we went early to the zoo and
had some cool animal visits and some behind the scenes spots. Here is
max with some fake coral above the shark tank. We also went to the
elephant barn.

Backpacking Trip to Shi-Shi Beach

My friend Seth and I went to Shi-Shi Beach on the ocean nearly at the northern tip of washington. The weather was quite nice. Warm and sunny most of the time, with some clouds and a bit of rain on the morning we left. A long drive, and easy hike, and spectacular scenery. Nice to get away for a few days. Thanks Nana and Janet for watching the boys while I was away.
