Lincoln Park

One of the better hidden parks of Seattle and close to home, enjoy.

Hiking with the Family

We took Dad and Ginny on a very short nature hike today near Snoqualmie summit. It was the perfect day to do so, and we enjoyed Dad’s narration of the natural highlights. On the way back we stopped by Providence Point to visit the white T-shirt family.

Dad and Ginny are here

We celebrated Ray's 69th birthday with a very low cal desert, which tasted pretty good. Dalene also purchased a new toy for Mom, can you see the spaceman?

That old dirty Cross

One of my personal dreams as the head usher has been to paint the old cross at the front of the church brilliant white. For years passer-byers have said our church was closed or run down. I want to take the opportunity to turn that notion around, tonight begins phase 1. Thank you Steph :-)

So I left work early today...

...and took a hike up Coal Creek. Never have I seen so many snails and banana slugs.

Welcome Baby Lucas

Dalene and Jolene went to visit thier cousin Angela and new baby at the hospital.

BBQ at the Weatherby's

What a great way to start the week! Having a nice evening BBQ with family, friends and Washers.

Sunday lunch with Aliya

Had a great post church lunch at Red Robin where Aliya entertained us all with her straw skills.

Family Showcase

Great family shot, Happy Saturday!

Daisy Days in Clarendon Hills

Closing out the Chicago series I wanted leave it off appropriately in my birth home. Here we spent some time with frienDoris and toured the now very modern Daisy Days. Have you all noticed a tread with the videos?

Time to turn up the heat! blog style

The Field Museum of Chicago is amazing; it has captivated my imagination since I was a child. I loved the dinosaurs but what I really think got me excited was the large murals of prehistoric creatures in their natural surroundings. This recent self discovery has turned me on to the art of Charles R. Knight. This turn of the (last) century painter was the first to paint early animal life, above are examples of this man’s extraordinary work. If some of you are thinking of birthday gifts for Dave Jr. look no further

Finally, some Chicago shots

Yes, I have been busy and neglecting family. Here are a couple of shots of the Science and Industy Museum in Chicago. Also, the added bonus of how I take a picture!

Welcome Home!

Well, the adventure is over. Dad took this shot early this morning (along with a call). I took the below shot on my way into work - far off in the distance you can see the boats docked.

Alaska Plane

Boarding (and ducking) and the classic finger shot. Zach, look - MetaDad!

Alaska Trip
