Satsop River Rock Festival &c.

We spent most of our weekend in Grays Harbor County.  Jaime's dad was putting on a music festival in Hoquiam, with headliners Wishbone Ash and Eric Burdon (the latter, I had to be told, was the frontman for the Animals, who had a bunch of 70s hits).  It was pretty fun and interesting.  I had not been to Aberdeen or Hoquiam for years - they are culturally interesting places.

Today is our 3rd anniversary, which we celebrated by driving up to Lake Quinault and then to Ocean Shores.  Actually, these were only incidental to the Hoquiam trip - the thing we celebrated most was returning home to the City.


Packing - all the accoutrements of a modern Ubermensch.

Jaime and younger brother, Brandon.

Jaime really embraced the whole rock festival, er, well, she got cold and resorted to an Afghan.

Tim Holderman and crew working, Jaime drinking.

At the back-of-the-house sound booth - Tim, Jaime and Steve - 3/5 of the Holderman clan.  Susan was a blur of activity all night, making sure the many band members and entourages were happy.
