FUN DAY

TIME TO DEPART

Recently, Norm hiked up the butte while the pickup was being serviced. The three of us decided to take the easier "trek" to the summit for a picnic. The pictures show the table with Autzen Stadium in the background. Also, the Willamette River and I-5, downtown buildings, Spencer Butte, recent construction on the hills above where the Yuans lived on arrival in town, and some of the buildings on the way to the coast. Lagaytha treated us at the DQ after our picnic.

PICNIC ON SKINNER BUTTE

We enjoyed a picnic on Skinner Butte the last day of July. It is located in the heart of downtown. One of the first settlers built a cabin on the west side. One of the finer homes is still located on the south side and is designated a historic site.

A FEW FLOWERS IN OUR BACKYARD

Red, White, and Blue. Happy 4th of July, everybody.

FATHER'S DAY

Family came for Father's Day and brought Chinese food.

LAGAYTHA'S BIRTHDAY

Lagaytha and Joy honored us with their presence on Lagaytha's birthday.

FRIENDS

Allen and Juanita (our long-time friends from college days) came by and treated us to lunch in their RV. Our neighbor was having a garage sale and Juanita found a platter that matches her dishes that her mother bought as a wedding gift.
