A Wet Fathers' Day

My third Fathers' Day! Pretty exciting. Despite all good intentions, we were thwarted in our plans to go strawberry picking today by the excessive rain this month. Not a good year for strawberries apparently.



Instead we opted to head on down to the beaver pond to take the canoe out for a spin. We received a fantastic life jacket from Lallie and Papa yesterday for Myrick, so we were all safe as we checked out the resident muskrats, beavers, red-winged blackbirds and Baltimore orioles. Bugs weren't too bad. While it's nice to reminisce about Seattle weather, I think we're all ready for some sun 'round these parts!
