Gordon won a few prizes for his photography at the Polk County Fair this year. Amateur category of 1st- black & white landscape, 2nd- architecture, 3rd- nature study, 3rd- wildlife.
Abigail had a baby shower for Cleopatra, her 2 month old baby girl, on August 14th.
After stopping to dip our toes in at the 58th mile marker on highway 22 in route to the Hanson Family Reunion at Suttle Lake we had a grape eating contest.
Jonathan- 1st place with 30 grapes! (we believe he was strategically stuffing the smaller size)
Dusty Rose- 2nd place with 21 grapes
Gordon- 3rd place with 18 grapes
We remembered almost everything for the one night potluck, except for a dish to serve our salad in! Luckily, Gordon found one (with serving spoons) at a consignment shop near Detroit Lake.
Mara, Dylan, and Gordon
While swimming, Dylan found a buoyant log that was fun to sit on and play with.
some of the Hanson Family that showed up
evening story telling
our bed
is this a commercial for Kindle?
on our way home we drove the McKenzie River scenic route, and drove through this amazing lava bed which is about 1,500 years old
two of the Three Sisters mountains
returning to the Willamette Valley, harvest season coming to a close
Gordon, Me, and Jonathan (a friend visiting from L.A. and whom we worked with in Bulgaria)
