These guys had the really neat idea of having garage-door style doors, opening out. That way the open space is both a covered deck (when you have the doors open) and regular indoor space (when the doors are closed). Interesting. | | Like the colors on this one. |
| |
|
 | |  |
Headed to Camp Orkila on Orcas Island | | |
| |
|
 | |  |
| | The cabin we stayed in was a lot like this, but further into the woods, so it was MUCH darker (emphasis on the dark - you couldn't see inside without a flashlight) |
| |
|
 | |  |
Lots and lots of deer were on the grounds | | The campfire theater (though there wasn't a campfire, since the smoke apparently always blew right into the audience) A walk at sunset |
| |
|
 | |  |
| | |
| |
|
 | |  |
There was a game group for preschoolers on Saturday morning. Lots of silly games involving massive amounts of running around | | |

Kenny and I hung out at the beach. Kenny collected some flat rocks for me, and I managed to balance some of them. | | |
| |
|
 | |  |
The deer were very fond of the apples and pears that had dropped from the plentiful fruit trees. | | |
| |
|
 | |  |
A campfire gathering, with Ilana front and center | | The kids had a good time imitating some of the skits from last night |
| |

Kayaking on the "funyaks". They really were, too! Very fast and manuverable. | | |

A nice view of the dock | | One of the red jellyfish that there's been lots of here. |

We took a trip to town (Eastsound) and saw this cute little RV. I guess it's just for sleeping... | | Also saw this funny bike... |

On the way home - we "paid" Kenny in Cheerios every time he ran up and down the ferry. At least it kept him busy! | | |
