A great day of fun at John, Cynthia, Tomas, and Copper's home in Bellngham! Our friends are doing wonderful, and enjoying the amazing weather. I heard Pa and John talking about how our visit was the ten year anniversary since their "summer of pain". I guess that summer involved epic solo bike rides into the county; and Pa taking off for three months to the Middle East. I guess I'll get to hear the rest of the story in a few years - but, they both seem to like the current "summer of fun" much better:):)
