Our friend Sara joined us for a trip to the Olympic peninsula where we hiked through the rain forest to a mountain lake. Beautiful wildflowers bloomed along the path. We hoped to catch a glimpse of elk or a bear (from far away of course!) but saw only a few grouse.

Zvonimir competed in the Lake Stevens triathlon where he swam, biked 56 miles and ran 13 miles. He had an excellent race and finished 3rd in his division. It was also a great race to watch. The top two professional contestants sprinted to the finish, the winner taking the race by 1 second!

My cousin Bill, Leslie, Jack and Cole invited us to the Hood canal for the holiday weekend. We had a great time watching the eagles, watching the boys ignite fireworks, playing fetch with Samson, and fishing in the bay. The Hood Canal is a beautiful area and we look forward to returning!
