Happy Halloween!

Thanks to Josh, Carrie, and Janet for hosting a great party. I'd thank Melinda for the drinks but...

Everyone had great costumes! I'm bummed I didn't get pictures of everyone, especially Lydia and her great tiger costume. Where were you hiding? There are no pictures of me. I went as Pluto the Dwarf Planet. I was a very bitter little planet.

Erik, it was great you could make it out. 

Hiking at Rainier

I'm posting these pictures a little late. We actually took this hike in September. It was such a great hike, so I thought I would post them anyway. The hike was only 5-7 miles (I don't remember exactly), but it took us past 4 lakes and lots of great scenary.

I'm not posting pictures from the hike we did last weekend. Actually it was more of a walk along two beaches. Either way, it was in the pouring down rain. I discovered during this hike that my rain jacket is no longer water proof. I didn't have the camera with me, but even if I did I wouldn't have wanted to bring it out in the rain.
