Fishing trip #1 - no luck what a waste

Abe: I don't like fishin' very much.  When we were camping this weekend on a famous river full of fish I spent almost FIVE MINUTES OF MY LIFE with this pole daddy made using the hooks i found and got nothin'.    POOEY ON THAT.

I'd rather climb a tree or ride my bike fast or trap neat insects.

Fun at Collins Beach, Columbia River

Koh: We just love beaches.  We went Sunday to this favorite one right near our home.  

Lots of sand, not lots of people, shallow water, kites, yummy picnic lunch, even an alien space boat.

Face Painting #1

Abe: We let the girl scouts touch our faces with paint for the first time.

Look at that big spider on my face!

Koh got fireworks.
