Travel 2024

Attended part of the Mule Barn Campout event in Port Townsend.  

Visited with family and friends.

Celebrating the first anniversary of our engagement, Dani and I went to the Terwilliger (AKA, Cougar) Hot Springs.

We drove the van and stayed at the Sunnyside Camp Grounds (#13 but #12 next time).  The camp ground was mostly empty with only one other site occupied.

Back to Boulder for more fun but a little work on the house remodel.

Second trip in the new van.

Visited Tess on the farm.

Attended the Anacortes Boat & Yacht show.

More work completed on the house renovation.

Kitchen cabinets are in; counter tops are next.

Dani and I attended the Boats Afloat event at Lake Union in Seattle.

We stopped and visited Ray and Barb on the way up.

 Took the new van for its maiden voyage from Portland to San Luis Obispo.  Braved a snow storm at the Oregon / California border but finally made it.

Went to Southern California (San Luis Obispo) to watch the launch of a SpaceX rocket. 

A friend who works for Ball Aerospace (now BAE) had VIP access.  

After the launch, we saw the local sites including whale watching, hiking the coast, etc.

Visited with friends and had some great meals.

Just waiting on cabinets now.

Starting to feel like a home again -- living room and basement complete.

Next big project is the kitchen.
