Congratulations, Jillian!   Waterfall of Fryingpan Creek on a day when it lived up to its name, as we ascended to Summerland.  Highlights:  time with Jillian, Natalie & Ryan.  Jillian graduated! Congrats, Jillian!      Bruce, Linda Jake and Ryan each did a little biking.  Bruce enjoyed two Mt Rainier trips: cross-country up Mt Ruth with Ryan,  and Summerland on the Wonderland Trail with Jake.  Sunshine and friends brightened our visit.father & son team   father & son team too!      rjbruce-mt-ruth.jpg          

Mt. Rainier…

 was glorious.  Wildflowers and glacier glare by day; meteors and Milky Way by moonless night.    wlking UNDER a snow bridge! through an ice cave…now that’s a new one!   Ryan at Emmons Glacier   rjbruce-rainier-1.jpgbruce-rainier-sunrise-2008.jpg
