David and I drove to Edmonds for a quick day trip to visit my aunt and uncle. It was a sweet time to catch up. We went to dinner in downtown Edmonds. I don’t recall the name but it was really good. They had a wall that opened up to a patio. My aunt and uncle had sold their condo in Edmonds and were renting a place for the summer. No matter where she is, Annie has pots of lovely flowers.

David and I hosted an informal gathering for friend to watch the parade from our deck. Jules, Lisa, Matt, and Meghan joined us! Matt walked the parade with a dog/wolf mask on, you can see the picture with Austin investigating it. Later that evening, Alex and I went to the beach to watch the fireworks!

This is a lovely little waterfall at the Nehalem Fish Hatchery. It is one of my favorite places to be. I enjoy taking a camp chair and reading with the sound of the falls in the background. I will occasionally look for crawdads in the water; just to observe, not to catch. It’s neat to see this place during the different seasons.

Portland’s Downtown hosted a Bloom Tour. Local merchants teamed up with floral artists to display flower art in front of or inside their stores.
We began our tour by visiting the Lan Su Chinese Garden, the followed the map to find the 20 something exhibits. It was a terrific way to spend the day with one of my longest held and dearest friend, get some decent exercise, and be inspired by the beautiful displays.
We ended our full day with a fantastic eastern european dinner at Kachka. What a delightful and delicious place to visit. This is a must return!!

More precious moments and memories created with girlfriends. My Cali friends Stacy, Elyse, and Jodi flew up to Portland. I picked them up and we enjoyed a three fabulous nights in Manzanita. Included massages at Spa Manzanita, a walk through Nehalem Bay Park (we saw elk), visit to Hug Point and Ecola Park overlook, and a long beach hike out to see a deceased humpback whale.
I dropped Elyse off at the airport, then reunited with Stacy and Jodi at McMenamin’s Edgefield for an additional two nights. We enjoyed the property, soaked in their pool, played pool, and hiked up Multnomah Falls. I then met up with Matt, Meghan, and Montana for dinner and spent the night at their place in Portland, before heading home the next day.

Elyse, Kelly, and I got together to hike the Flower Farm Trail. We will all be doing a part of the Camino Frances in September. After the Flower Farm Trail (I don’t know what it’s actually called, that’s just what we call it), we had brunch at the Flower Farm Cafe.
