Paige's 13th Birthday

Happy Birthday to Paige!!!

Paddle boat trip

Here are some pictures of our maiden paddle boat voyage. I was following someone taking a load of stuff to the landfill and they had this paddle boat on top. I pulled up next to them at a stop sign and asked them if they were really going to throw it away and asked if I could have it. So I brought it home, did some minor repairs and wheeled it down to the lake on the girl's little red wagon with the canoe as a rescue boat in case it started to sink. We had a ball sneaking up the pelicans and turtles and Avery even got to see a 20"+ trout jump right in front of our boat.






















This is where I make all my phone calls on Sunday while watching all the sailboats and birds go by.

Bike to work month.



Our office is competing with the Seattle office for the bike to work challenge. So far I'm up to 145 miles on 11.5 trips into work this month and our office (775 miles) is beating the Seattle office (754 miles). Hopefully you will be able to link to the site below.

-- The Pokey Pelican

The grebes are dancing again.

I had the funnest day last Saturday on a little birding trip up to the north end of the lake with the local Audubon club. We ended up seeing 94 different species of birds.
