SpokeFest

3rd annual SpokeFest was a few weeks ago. It is a 21 mile bike ride around Spokane, mostly along the Spokane river. Myself and 3 other friends met up for the adventure. We all made it to the finish line without any injuries. Then it was back to our house for a BBQ. Yummy!

Silverwood

Patrick and I took his son Joey to Silverwood for the day. Joey is here visiting for the month and was promised a trip to Silverwood before he goes back home. For a 6 year old, he is fearless. His favorite ride was the Corkscrew rollercoaster which goes upside down. We also went on Tremors, the big wooden rollercoaster, the log ride, and Thunder Canyon. The second half of the day was spent at Boulder Beach playing in the wave pool and sliding down the slides.

We went camping up to Little Diamond Lake with Greg's family over 4th of July weekend. We did some hiking, playing in the campfire and tons of eating! It was Max's first camping trip and he did very well and the nephews had a blast playing with him.

Seattle

Went to Seattle over the weekend. It was just as wet there as it was here. Took Max on his first road trip. He was introduced to new friends Sugar and Buddy. They played hard the entire weekend. While we were there we did some shopping, took in a Mariners game and just relaxed. Oh, and drank lots of wine.
