September misc.

Hi everyone! OK, we've got soccer pictures, which as always have great facial expressions if enlarged. Then more stylish Ani pictures. Can you say almost 13?
Also Jon is in his dye making outfit - he had many gallons to make for VOCA camp this weekend for the tye dye fest. Also a very filthy Tim. It's not that we like him less, it's just that he truly dislikes having his picture taken, hence the lopsided coverage...
Also... my friend Luke and I swimming in the lagoon. The sad news is I swam last night with Tim, the chemistry teacher from the high school (Luke is also a high school science teacher, wierd...). Anyway, Tim brought water testing equipment and called tonight to say "LAURA - STAY OUT OF THE WATER! DO NOT GO IN THE WATER!" He seems to have found an alarmingly high level of entero coccus (don't know how to spell it) which is a fecal coloform marker. Very bad. This could actually be a big story, and more monitoring to follow. So far, I'm still alive.

more swimming pictures!








We had so much fun with our Idaho Cousins!!! Went to the beach; built a big beach fire to stay warm; Laura and the boys swam crazy far- a few hundred yards- accross the lagoon to the other side and back. We hot tubbed; ate lots of fish; swam with the Kings in Big Creek- even landing a big 30 pound king salmon and hooking a few more. We swam in the river and ate out at our brew pub, the Fort George. SO SO much fun!!!

Graves from Idaho visit!!!

Here we are on the way down to the river rail road tressle for swimming!
