78

I just now realized I hadn't made a blog appearance since Hawai'i.

We had absolutely unusual weather this weekend. My first choice was to go out on Chris' new boat, but it is broken already and awaiting a part, so I decided to take Jaime over to the Beach House for the day. After a small mishap on the ferry (my battery went dead from listening to the Beatles all the way over on the boat), we had lunch at the Hardware Store in Vashon and then took a walk on the beach down to Point Robinson light house. It was beautiful, warm and windless. We got back to Seattle in time to shower and walk through the sculpture park to the waterfront and have dinner at Anthony's, where we sat outside as the sun set in empty, clean skies.

...simple pleasures.



Watching the sea lions - we could hear them barking out on the channel buoy the whole time we walked on the beach.

All the forest understory that usually looks drab in summer was in bloom and covered with purple flowers.

I like the little blue balloon sitting on the beach, which matches Jaime's pashmina. This could be a painting, but it would seem improbable.



Blue, blue, blue; a theme of the day.

I love that you know what a pashmina is...next time you see Nate ask him if he knows what it is. I bet he thinks it is a country or something. Loved the SUNNY photos!

Ken knows what a pashmina is, but then again he has visited the countries that make them. I am sure he knows other things that he can't tell us! Love to see the beach!
