Meanwhile, up here in Friday Harbor - the boys are finding deer and rabbits...
...and even camels! (This is Mona, the famous island camel.)
We discovered some gorgeous new beaches (new to the boys and I - Pop knows all of them!)
One even came with pre-made forts!
The next beach was for swimming...well, sort of. It's like swimming in ice water. Didn't slow Andrew down much - the kid would come out of the water and steam was pouring off of him - seriously!
Pop rolled a log down for them to 'surf' on...still cold, though...
We also had lunch on the docks at Roche Harbor. It's a hot day up here - nothing like back at home (did you guys hit triple digits?) - but hot for the islands. A few of us have little sunburns, even.
Our view at lunch wasn't actually as gorgeous at the shot above, though. This was directly below us. Yum.
We also stopped at the alpaca farm to pick up some yarn for a dear friend...and visited the fuzzy heads, too. They are awful cute...and curious...
The boys tried on hats in the air conditioned store...
...and I couldn't resist snapping yet another flower shot. I love things that grow so much.
We came back home for a little rest, some dinner and baths before heading back out to the dock for some shrimping! We caught all sorts of critters tonight - shrimp, of course; tiny crabs; baby fish and even a sea urchin! They all get thrown back in...nobody gets hurt (or eaten) around here!
Matthew doing what he does best...playing in a corner. It's tough to tell from this picture, but he is seriously tucked back into this little corner. I had to lay under dad's feet and between a coffee table and chair to even get this shot.
Andrew being a goof ball - added bubbles to a jacuzzi tub - bubbles for miles and miles...
Oops. Another flower shot. I'm in love with the lavendar all along the patio. The bees are, too! In the morning when it's quiet, you can hear these bushes buzzing - it's intense!
