What a terrific day you all had! Thanks so much for posting all the great pictures and explaining what THAT kind of lock is! I've never seen that in person either.

Lunch with Cheryl and the kids looked like so much fun!

Last picture of the locks...



We walked across that...to a place where you go down into a cool room where you can look through huge windows and see salmon and stuff under the water. We didn't see any, though...

We said good bye to Cheryl and the kids and took off on another adventure before heading home...

Puget Sound

The day was so gray that you couldn't tell where the water met the sky...

Oil tanker looks so small!


Drove up a big hill to get this view...



And that's all my pictures.

I don't think the loon would have let you touch his butt even if you wanted to.

I don't know how you missed this, Loz--but I missed it also.--I did catch where Cindy & Bill were going to meet Cheryl for lunch--but then I guess I got busy with the basement.

Cindy, Bill,--Wow such great pictures--thanks bunches for sharing!!
It seems you have just 1 wonder after another up there in Washington.
(and BTW-I LOVED the video too)
--perhaps you can at least watch the video, Cindy???

Cheryl: I am glad I got to see pictures of you and the kids as well.

Bill, I forgot to mention---Love the beard---but a question came to mind----

Is the beard a "Cindy request"??

or could it be that all good Gnomes wear a beard???
