One of the big pros for us about moving back to Bellingham was it’s proximity to the water. Sailing was part of my life growing up, and Jonathan was a Sea-scout. We always wanted to share this with our kids, but it is expensive and not super-convenient in the Seattle area.
We quickly found a sailing camp at the Bellingham Yacht Club for Avery. After his experience in California earlier in the year, he was excited to try it out, and he loved it! Here he is at camp:
Jonathan’s office is by the marina, so we stopped by to visit a few times and take a walk, watch Avery at camp, and enjoy the salt air.
Here are the boys in front of Jonathan’s building.

“Can you see me now?”
We also took advantage of the sailing on the lake once. Lakewood is right across the lake from us, and is where Jonathan rowed out of when he was on the crew team at Western. He and Papa took Avery and Kieron out for a little day sail one afternoon. I am so happy that they got to go out with Papa, and we hope to do more of this next summer!
