Arts & crafts, sports, & adventure (GALLERY)

Early evening from Eastmont

Employees got to work today & stayed productive, finishing projects & using gold paint & a brush, nearly Picasso, w/ ace results. Early release was permitted, w/ auto mechanic, bowling alley, & hiking the destinations, & got right to it.

Practicing technique

Pins were felled as different balls, foot positions, release methods, etc. were tried. 👍

Exercise

Continuing to turn the tide of shape-getting, local man arrives at base of moderately steep, becomingly familiar mountain, knowing daylight will be gone partway through. Good (and it was). As we continue toward summer this changes, w/ lengths gaining, hallelujah!

Drain lane

Just walk around the back here & you’re there just like that… Couple tough spots. 😁

Second stage

A most appreciated seat w/ view.

Columbia’s eastward bend

Catching breath meanwhile.

Oh hi there.

Testing success

This was an ‘aha’ as I went panorama sideways to get moon in photo.

Fun had there. Dusk approaches.

Opportunity to post on social media & rest.

I’ve grown to like this decoration quite a lot.

Still impressed by iPhone 16 Pro Max.

Saddle selfie

Risked low-visibility scurry for keepsake glory.

Wenatchee from the saddle

Showpiece I believe.

You’re on thin ice, pal, altho plenty strong here *subtle groans*

Strolled atop pond. Walking on water? Can’t be. Or?
