April 5th Hands Off

I don’t think this will have any effect on our administration, but I know it will have an effect on the people.

The Real Farmer, Ian Hayman

Ian Hayman, the quirky farmer, led us through our next adventure on the shores of Lake Pukaki.

Hiking Rangitoto Island Loop

We had many hours to kill, and pent up energy from having spent an eternity on airplanes.

Bend’s Desert Museum

The High Desert Museum in Bend is a large, high quality museum in a small, central Oregon town.

Hotlanta

We extended our trip by 24 hours in order to experience more of Atlanta.

Atlanta from Up High and Down Low

I was able to see Atlanta from a sky-high observation deck, and then from an underground time capsule.

Centennial Olympic Park

Atlanta built a park to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Olympic games.

Friends on the Fourth

Our plans changed completely, but it still ended up being an especially great camping trip with friends.

Kam Wah Chung

The city didn’t take advantage of the gift right away, and somehow it was forgotten. A dusty treasure of artifacts that sat only a few feet away from city managers and planners for decades.

McMenamins Olympic Club

This former Gentlemen’s Resort had its heyday years ago, when it hosted working women and illegal alcohol.
