Lake Entiat - May 27, 2026

 This has become almost an annual event for Kay, Michael, Kathy, and I. The weather was perfect and the water was glass for this, our inaugural paddle of the year. I forgot my phone so thanks to Kathy for taking these pictures







The obligatory calendar photo

Sauer's Mountain - May 2, 2026

This used to be an annual tune up hike for me but it was 4 years since I last did it. This time I had the pleasure of doing it with Peter. It turned out to be an awesome flower hike.

San Joseph Bay, BC - April 26. 2026

 We were turned on to this place by Brian and Lynnelle who visited here last year. It was a tortuous two and a half hour drive over unpaved logging road to get to the trailhead but it was a delightful hike to this magical spot. It was well worth it.

The beach was long and broad








The sea stacks were a highlight.










Our lunch spot











We accumulated a bit of dust.




Jarvis and Princess Louisa Inlets - April 24, 2026

 This was a first for Kay and I but one I always wanted to do because of stories I have heard from my boating friends over the years. It was absolutely stunning and was reminiscent of our cruise in the Norwegian fjords.

Again, the water was clear with an emerald color. It was magical.
