James and Mel had to get their Seafair fix and so we made a trip to Seattle. I spent time with Mom walking, talking and shopping-we did Farmers Market in downtown Edmonds. As we walked along the edge of Lake Ballinger it was interesting to see that the island in the middle of the lake was smoldering. It is really just a peat bog and someone had illegally started a fire when having a BBQ. We could smell the smoke for the time we were visiting.
One evening we took Mom out to Ivars for fish.

The guys had a wonderful 2 days at Seafair watching the races over Lake Washington and the Blue Angels. On Saturday afternoon we drove over to Bob and Marianne's and had a BBQ and then headed for home bringing Clarissia with us.
