Meredyth, Dave, Frank, Dave, Chris, Beth, Matty, Ernie, Gilad.


Beth, Meredyth, and Dave. Watching Matty fly and wondering if it's time to launch.


Oops, not really part of the crew. But, it is a sweet butterfly on Meredyth's harness.

Matty and the clouds.

Camping, Table Mountain, 8.8.10

One of the most beautiful places I've ever camped.


Rolled out of bed this morning and walked a few steps out to the bluff. I could see Cle Elum in the distance, but couldn't hear anything but birds and breeze.


So great to share this lovely spot with friends. Ernie made a great breakfast.


I had to pop out to the bluff periodically to see the changing clouds and light. Before the clouds moved in, we could see both Mt. Rainier and Mt. Adams looking one way and the spiky rock peaks of the North Cascades looking the other.

Thanks for kicking the wood on the fire...makes for nice sparks.

Canyon Lake Ridge Hike 7.4.10

Stopped by to take a look at the BJ launch on our way to the trail head.


Wood and windsock.


A fun hike with creek crossings (winter was unkind to the foot bridges), grouse family, bear scat...lots of it, and fossils. Oh, and a bit of rain.


So hard to get a decent photo of this guy.
