Ten On Ten ~ June 10, 2011

We are blessed to be spending
a week at the beautiful
Auke Bay home of our friends,
Eric and Bunny!
 She and I were friends
 in 7th and 8th grades,
when my Dad was
stationed in Juneau.
 My family was living here when
Alaska became a state in 1959.

Morning view from deck...
Looking out at the dock,
what's on the railing...??

... a young eagle!!!

Looking up at their home
and boat house
from their dock ...

Jerry and Eric went fishing...

Bunny and I went sight seeing - 
saw several art students 
at work around Auke Lake.
 Their challenge was to paint 
some of the scenery...
 without using green!

 We enjoyed some beach time!

 Just can't get enough
 of the awesome
and majestic scenery!

 




There are two ways to live your life:
one is as though nothing is a miracle,
the other is as though everything is!

Ten On Ten ~ March 10, 2011

          My birthday!!  We left Linda's Mt. Vernon home after a wonderful three night stay, traveling with Eric & Bunny in their motor coach back to Renton. They hooked up their Tahoe and headed to Oregon, and then Jerry and I headed to Tahuya. The weather has been very windy and rainy. Late tonight we learned of a 8.9 quake and tsunami in Japan.
