Return to Tiger Mountain

I’m on a bit of a blogging spree tonight. Must be because the TV programing as of late has been extremely mediocre. Hehe.
Well, last night at 5:00 PM we got in the van and headed over to Tiger Mountain. We hiked it a few weeks ago and had a great time. This latest trip was also really good, though we should have started our adventure an hour earlier. At the top Avery was extremely well behaved, sitting down between Lindsey and I and munching on some graham crackers.

Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum

On the way back from the beach we stopped at the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum. It’s most famous for being the home of the Hughes H-4 Hercules (aka Spruce Goose). I’m the “always-dreaming-of-flying-one-day” type, so for me it was an incredible place to visit. The H-4 is such an amazing airplane. You don’t realize how massive it is until you see it in person.
The plane Daddy would love to fly (Piper Cub).

Babies for Obama

Avery is growing into quite a Lil’ Dem. He enjoys watching Barack give speeches, and even claps at the appropriate applause points. Recently, he’s been sporting the tee shirt pictured below. Obama/Biden ’08!

Bad to the Bone

Here are a few pictures I meant to post before I went to Eugene last week to help with the new hospital. I’d like to say I took them, but I think you can see me sitting in the background. Lindsey is also an excellent photographer and she gets big smiles out of Avery.

Water, Sand, and Basketball

We’ve been spending a lot of time in the backyard. The weather has been great, and my resplendent wife has been busy gathering outdoor toys all week. As the week progressed more attractions were added, and tonight Avery was running between the pool, the sand table, and the basketball hoop. He’s having a great time, and it’s a nice place for us adults to relax and enjoy a cocktail in the evening. Life is good.







Thirsty.

Also thirsty.
