JANUARY 2011


Jean on one of our early morning walks in the neighborhood woods. 



Old burnt cedar leaning on a maple. 


Pilliated woodpecker working on a power/telephone pole marked for replacement.


Card with grandson Brandon Patton and a camel.



Winter drive to Eastern Washington over Snoqualmie Pass (3022 ft  - 921 m).



Further snowfall by mid April made for a total snowfall of at least 460 inches.


We attend a Rick Steves "Europe through the Back Door" reunion with our friends and Italy guide Robin (on right) in Edmonds, about 40 minutes from Kirkland.
