Greece Baby!

We are finally on a real vacation...in Greece!

Currently on a ferry from Athens to Mykonos enjoying the water of the Aegean Sea (Mediterranean). Will post pics when I have a faster internet connection than the one on the ferry..very slow.

Happy Rhubarb

The brick wall/planter behind the deck is finally finished:

And the garden is planted: tomatoes, basil, lettuce, chard & beets

Uncle Butch brought over a rhubarb start from one of his plants,
and it seems to be very happy in its new home

The Brazilian Steakhouse with dancers

The Capilano Suspension bridge

Furry Creek Golf, my favorite course

Signature Hole #14

Had a great time in Vancouver, BC for my 40th birthday. Great golfing with friends (the girls had a spa day), some 5 pin bowling and billiards, Brazilian steakhouse, suspension bridge and the treetop adventure (no zip lines this time). Great to see Shane and Tricia, Brad and Nicole, and my buddy Mike; glad they all could make it.

More snow in Seattle!

We got a couple more inches of snow the other night here in Seattle, I guess winter is not over here either. Today it was in the 20's and quite windy, almost felt like North Dakota.

Glass Flowers

We took a 'Blow Your Own' glass class at Uptown Glassworks and made glass flowers:
