life update, with photos

So in the last couple months, we've been rock climbing, hiking, scuba diving (on rebreathers) and sailing. We've had a couple lovely Sunday brunches too. And worked on the house. No wonder I like the idea of napping but rarely indulge...

Here are a few photos. Work first, then play...



Above is a picture through the kitchen, facing the dining and living rooms. Windows face East. Why would someone build such bizarre cabinetry that blocks the view of happy guests eating dinner? We couldn't figure it out either... so...


Away it went. We made it G&E height, slapped a wooden counter top on, called it good. First major-major house renovation, I love it!


Then we went to play in Leavenworth. We went rockclimbing with A and K. These ladies know what the dirt they are doing. Me, not so much. G, somewhat. We all agreed on a lovely 3 pitch 5.5 to 5.7 route, should have been (relatively) easy, handholds and all... which it was, but there were also some burley spots that you had to get creative to get through. Not so bad for my 4th climb ever. I see more of this in our future.


Awesome climbing photo of A...













(Yeah, she is way up there. And we followed her up. She is great for leading. K made excellent back-up/support. We had an absolute blast.)

Blogger won't let me add more photos. Meanie.
