Memorial day weekend at Deception Pass State Park and look, no cars in the car park/parking lot.
Maybe the early hour had something to do with it.
A long weekend camping at Deception Pass State Park was a chance to really get to know the place after last years day trip .
Drift wood made for excellent den building and Cranberry Lake was a great place to float around and cool off on. Some eagle spotting... ...and cloud gazing on North Beach, with just-in-time sunsets from West beach. A chance to wind down with some coloring... ...and stone sculpture.

Martin's cap lost on the way up, found by someone and placed on this tree so we'd see it on the way down.
Whoever you were: thank you.
An early start on Saturday for a hike up Mail Box Peak
Pretty spectacular views of Mt. Rainier to the SE, but the haze meant downtown Seattle was only _just_ visible.
It's called Mail Box Peak because there's a mail box on the top! Martin had a good riffle through the contents, but there was no ice cold beer to be found.
I cut the lawn this afternoon, which meant football could resume. It had got a bit ridiculous having to wade through the grass, and the lawn service - aka Les - has been otherwise engaged in strategic bedroom floor leveling activities...
The winning team: 10 goals to 8!
The proper training sessions begin Monday, we need more practice before Fantastic Fred arrives.
An excuse to get dressed up, the 2008 school auction fund raiser (and yes, I do hate wearing a suit).
The bird house did good, loads a $$$$$$s!
I nearly lost my coffee this morning, luckily I spied it before it spilled. Could have been nasty.
Almost exactly what you need when you're up a tad early for a multi-continent conference call.
I'm thinking of relocating into the kitchen.
Yeah baby, Steve hits 40. I'm guessing we'll be missing a massive party or two. Congrats mate.
