International Kite Festival 08/23/2009

Once again we travelled out to Long Beach, WA for the Kite Festival. This year, however, we brought our own kite. Will had a great time playing on the beach, flying his kite and looking at the other kites.

Mt. Ellinor hike with Amanda

My friend Amanda and I hiked to the summit of Mt. Ellinor on 08/22/09. You know it was a good climb when you are looking down at clouds at the end.

Will and John stayed home. I just thought I'd put the photos on here anyway.










These goats are very tame. There were a few mom and baby pairs near the summit.












We were both completely wiped out when we reached the top. It took us 2.25 hours and it was hard almost the whole way.











Here is one of the first goats we saw.













Climbing into the clouds!
