"Yo Ho! Yo Ho! A Priate's life for me!"

These are some pictures from the Stampede again, a few of the sand sculptures that were on display in the convention center called "The Beach." (The irony wasn't lost on me either). These photos were sent from a neighbor who really enjoyed them. I thought they'd be some good artistic filler for today.

Had a busy day yesterda - took a walk with a friend and her little son (Charlie). They have a nice "beach" on the river near their house. It was fun. In the afternoon, we all went to the zoo with the Roy family. Finally, we did something together even if it was only for about 2 hours as they had to get somewhere in the late afternoon. But we still had a fun time.

It was a mellow night as Colton (BMX Kent's brother) was packing to leave and SDJ was mourning the loss of her new neighbor friends. I think it will make the busy week we've planned easier to take :) It has been very hot (no complaints! I don't care), so we've all been a little sluggish with no air conditioning and only a little rain to keep up alert.

Sorry it's so dull here. At least you have those nifty pictures!!
