Lake Diablo

Ben had his first two days in a row off in two months so we decided to get the heck out of town and go camping. We headed to the North Cascades...The North American Alps (I have nothing to compare them too, but they were definately stunning).

I love that on this trip Avery became a reader. "The Puppy Place" was a page turner.













Quick stop at Cascadian Farms for some berry drenched shortcake and ice cream.




















We saw at least 18 waterfalls on our drive to the lake.





























































































Look at that water color!


























In a completely random, but totally welcome turn of events, we ran into our friends the Thorntons who were in our ward in Hawai'i and also made the move to the Northwest. Of all the campgrounds in Washington...





These two gals share a birthday...and perhaps a love of feather collecting.

That place looking amazing, and I can't believe Avery's fishing abilities. I am so impressed.
