Camping in the Cascades

Last weekend we went camping by Mt. Adams with our friends and fellow ex-expatriates Naomi, Aaron and Amity. It was one heck of a long drive, but well worth it, esp. since Amity was out all the way from the East Coast. We got to meet Aaron's parents and sister plus it was Aaron's birthday. Maybe Aaron will take the occasion to update his blog... http://tikidonkey.blogspot.com/

'Ole Betty has made it over at least a dozen mountain passes and put on a couple thousand miles this summer, pretty good after sitting for the last few years. Maintenance required since we got back stateside: 1 Oil Change, 1 Air filter, 1 Ignition Coil, 1 Can of Sea-Foam dumped down the carb 1 battery terminal and 1 tire. She runs pretty good after cleaning things out with the sea-foam.

In other news - we are headed back to the midwest for a couple weeks at the end of August and are very excited to see friends and family.
