Daughter was home for a friends wedding. She loves to mow...which I, as a loving parent support

She wrapped for the pollen with headphones, and, I might add, is a wizard at this:

Mowing can have a certain Zen quality and instant feeling of accomplishment, you are a good Poppa for letting her soak that up.
The pollen has been crazy thick here too. Left over N95's help me avoid the allergens.
My eyeballs take he brunt, guess it's time for goggles too.

Had a BIL here for a 10 day visit, he's been living in Thailand for decades now, married a Thai and has a 10 year old daughter.
America is kind of a culture shock for him even though he was born, raised and educated in the US.
Interesting to hear his perspective on how different thing are here now.

Got him out to some favorite stopping grounds, my first time seeing the Oso slide memorial now completed.
It's stunning and very well designed and built IMHO











Big metal sculptures memorializing families, couples and individuals were very impactful for me- the site is only about a half hour away from home.
I still remember the sounds of Blackhawk heli's bringing remains to the Arlington airport blocks away from where I live that went on for 4 months afterward.

Also took him up to the closest mountain access road. Mt. Loop highway had just partially opened the day we went up to Big Four Ice caves- still a month or so before caves start forming.
Tons of avi run out fill the cirque and surprisingly we did not hear or witness any releases.
Stayed well back from the 4K' face that spits rocks and snow down hill periodically.











Walked down to Granite Falls too, it's full and ripping with spring runoff

Mine as well. Try these, my son got them for me after I wandered around mowing like the drunk sailor I am.

^Nice work^

Alaska late June 2019
Our one and only cruise, the small ship was great for getting way back in the fjords, not so good out in open water.
Should have started the motion sickness meds sooner, live, throw up and learn.

Hilton Head Island Sunset taken from the rooftop bar of new restaurant Benny's Coastal Kitchen.

Beautiful and never gets old! Been to Benny’s twice…once for lunch and once for dinner. Nice both times but in the dining room it’s so noisy it’s hard to have a conversation. Waitress said they’re going to do something about it. It’s brand new from the ground up…you’d think they would have thought of that ahead of time.

Here’s one from just down the street at the rowing dock (still the intracoastal):

If there is anything I have, it's sunset pictures.

[porsche tech]

Agreed. Cloud formations too…camera never does them justice…
