Dave left Sunday afternoon for a work trip up in Goldendale, WA - some sort of 'conference'.  He took the van to camp out in...I was thinking what kind of 'conference' is this...  this is his view from this guys land - nice view of Mt. Adams and I guess Mt. Hood was in view as well.  I'm still wondering about this work conference!  I guess it's 'low energy' - no hotels, people camp and lot's of social time!

As we often do in the evenings during summer time - here are the girls eating their dinner on the front porch.  Tonight was especially fun because two of the neighbors were also eating dinner on their front porch.  And the it was Kid play time! Parker likes to hang with the big kid's now - she chases them and they love it when she chases them.  They are pretty good with her.  Parker is finally just now reaching out to a few neighbors and letting them pick her up - finally it's been almost 2 years!
