Zombie walk

Pulled our moaning asses off the ground Friday nite to join 200 other zombies for a cemetery to pub zombie walk. Lots of ketchup and foot dragging made it a fun time

Beautiful day

Weeks of rain and gray give way to a beaute now and then. Refuel job 20 mile east of Juneau .

Garrard/McFadden/Becketts

Summer filled with visitors from near and far... mostly not too far... We had the Never filled with the family McFadden, Terry (the husband), Judy (the little sister), Oski (the dog) Spook (cat, pictured), Buddy (no picture :/) from Seattle for 1st part of the summer. A short, but sweet visit from Jeanne Beckett (the big sister) from Seattle area. Tom made it up from Bay area for a brief weekend (no picture, brother -in- law) Amazing whale watching, including bubble feeding, fishing (Terry's favorite sport) and some kayak support... for son (jack, no picture... youv'e seen him lots) and friends of KK. Now things are quiet... maybe abit boring... all in all a great group!!! Thanks for coming to Indian Cove

Berners Bay Cabin

We were supported by NEVER (big boat from Seattle) in our outing... ie they brought all the food, water, heavy stuff! Becca, Bea, kathy kayaked out in amazing calm, beautiful waters, tons of wildlife.... Jack came in out the big boat, secured the cabin. The wildlife nearly ate Becca (according to her) but we did have some amazing close encounters with a pod of Orca, chasing some sealions, we saw seals and a few humpbacks to round out the experience. Bear on the beach, but none around the cabin (that we could see...) Great weekend...

Jack is going thru those teenage changes

3-4 yrs spent  in braces eating like a caterpillar,  bowl after bowl of cereal...he has gone from a 94 lb 5'6" 6th grade slow moving insect 

to a 147 lb  6'  9th grade pupae. Endless sleep deprived gaming sessions followed by long periods of carpet and couch sleep seances he has transformed......

Emerging......... as the monarch butterfly of youth. The possibilies are endless, his grades are good, his life is half virtual,  half reality. And as the monarch goes so could he , traveling 1000's of miles in search of a perfect mate and flying across far off lands on the way, being crushed on the windshield of the 18 wheeler of life or somewhere in between.

We're very proud of him.

We only ask one thing............... Please don't bust up that grill for a few years, we just made the last payment on it.

Dubby is in the house

Alittle moist but it's good to have it close by, Already have gawkers, haven't gotten it running on it's own power yet. Can I borrow a few metric wrenches?
