Summer summer summertime



Is it really the middle of July already? Summer. It's in full swing. Let me fill you in with what's been happening. Eric took off for his yearly windsurfing trip to the coast, meet up with old friends, and sleep in the car. During that time, Tabatha took a last minute trip out here to see me. We had an adventurous time hiking into waterfalls, escaping the heat at " The Shining" lodge on top of Mt. Hood and biking along the Columbia river. I was trying to wave the carrot in front of her so she'd move out here. She ended up having to go home, unfortunately. We had a great time, I loved having her here! The 4th of July was spent watching the fireworks with my honey. Eric had an old friend staying with us from Laguna Beach and Jace is busy socializing on his summer break. I recently picked up mountain biking. I am amazed at the beauty here in Washington. Here are a couple pics from the other day biking near Mt. St. Helens (look closely, you'll see Jace in the backseat!). This was the end of the day and the sun was about to set. I was beat.


This coming weekend is the Gorgegames (http://www.gorgegames.net/). Jace and I are volunteers. Riverboarding and skateboarding. Should be fun. I convinced Eric to compete in the 10K trail run with me. err...trail walk. Then it's another houseguest. Seattle. Eric's mom is coming to see the new house! Just after that, I head to Maine for some work stuff, then the guys fly out for their first ever east coast vacation.


Summer. Too much fun and not enough time!


Gone west. Love, Isolde

Summer is way too short, but it looks like you are making the best of it, as busy as you are. I can't wait until you 'come east' to see you! Love it when you update your blog.....
