Washougal River Day

The other day when Gigi was here we decided to go to the river. We were given secret coordinants through a top secret interface method called "facebook". This incredible technology has allowed us to be downloaded with the most pristine & luxurious of swimming holes. Yay for us!

We made it to the secret spot unscathed & no one else was there. Fed the babe some lunch & were about to go for a dip when we hear some peeps creeping down the path....they come out of the brush & low & behold its our good friends Sarah King, Mira, Blest & Leighton(who I hadn't met yet). Family fun day turned up the fun just a little bit as games of frisbee, wobble weeble beach ball & river floaty mayhem ensued. What a gorgeous spot. The water was on the chilly side of refreshing, but once you were in for a while it was really nice.




It's pretty funny because I guess when they got there they were bummed that there was another car at the trailhead, but were super glad when they got down the trail to discover it was someone they knew. & Sarah King & I have been trying to get together for her to meet Stella, so it all worked out perfectly. They got to meet in such a beautiful place & stare into each others eyes & giggle & make faces & get acquainted really well. It was super fun.


At one point, Inigo did get into Mira's snack while she was swimming in the river. He feels really bad about it though & says he is sorry. He didn't mean to eat your snack Mira, he just has a very sensitive nose & a pension for trouble. He can't really help it. Look at those eyes...

When we were sufficiently cooled, relaxed & quieted by the serene surroundings of the always lovely washougal, we headed back to ptown for the evening. Somehow, all that relaxing makes you really tired. I never got that. But its one of my favorite things to do: to rest after relaxing all day.


Ahhhh summer....
