During our last two days in France, we took a bunch of photos. This first group, which has been drastically paired down, is from the Sarlat market and the medieval town itself. This was an amazing place, and we would have loved to spend more time here...

Markets and Castles

Seeing double
I don't know if its the rain, the crappy economy or simply because the dreaded date draws near. I don't feel like doing much of anything lately, so I figured I might as well write a blog post. It's been too long since I actually wrote something...

Ella helps Daddy with Armenian cheese
Ella had a blast with Daddy today! She got to help me string the Armenian cheese he bought over the weekend. I love that Seattle has enough ethnic places that I can buy pretty much anything type of food I want at Pike Place Market. Rest of the photos...

Climb For Kids - About to Conquer Mt. Rainier
It's been a while since I blogged. Sheesh have I been busy and on top of that my Tablet PC died. It had a good run for 4 years, so it was about time I replaced it. Yes, the rumors are true, I did buy a Mac to replace it, but I'll save that story for another...
