Spokane Weekend

Things to note about this last weekend in Spokane:
1) I found my sunglasses (after I dunked my head in the lake while I was wearing them).
2) I found my wedding ring (after I left it on the beach and walked half and hour back to our car).
3) I broke Mindy's grandma's wind chime (but she said it was pretty old anyway).
4) I forgot to pack my deodorant (but in 100+ degree heat, who's gonna have the energy to care about that?).

Here are some shots from this last Friday through Tuesday:

Mindy's brother Stephen played in Hoopfest, which is the biggest three on three basketball tournament in the world.

This is a cool set of escalators in the downtown mall in Spokane.

Basking in the sun with my wife, who would later ask me, "Hey, where's your wedding ring?"

On the trail back from the beach. I found my ring and decided it was worth a very mediocre picture to remember the moment:

Mindy's Grandma Ludy watched as her grandkids played "lasso-golf":

I hooked three on the top rung. I was very impressed:

This was the first time we had all of Mindy's family together for a very long time, so we grabbed some pictures to remember it:

  1. "Lasso-golf" looks hilarious! I especially like that the balls are made to look like golf balls; It's as if the designers said, "We want to make it look like what you could make for yourself at home out of used materials, but we'll spend the effort to create molds and make new ones instead."

    I almost lost my wedding ring once in a crowded bathroom up at WWU. I was 5 miles away before I realized that I'd dropped it! I called a co-worker that went back and found it for me. Phew!
