Scenes from the Pacific Northwest

...I've been remiss in posting...here's why

Lots going on that I should have been and should be writing about. We’ve been travelling in the Pacific Northwest visiting (lone surviving aunt…cousins…children and grandchildren) and despite the best of intentions, I’ve not carved out the time for this blog…so, to make some amends, here’s some photos.

May LL baseball in the Pac NW…we’ll be going to a lot of grandchildren’s baseball and softball games over the next week

We’re currently on Vashon Island in the Puget Sound off Tacoma, WA. John Ratzinger (Cliff on Cheers) lives here. We’ve been checking the bars, but haven’t found him yet.

Have patience with me, I’ll try to address more serious matters soon.
