a rainy day at Deception Pass

We had a wonderful visit with my folks. 
The weather man was actually right for once....
and we had beautiful northwest days for a lot of the week.
Of course the one day we were going to go sight-seeing was rainy....
but that didn't dampen our mood and we still had a
splendid time together! 
Deception Pass is one of our family's favorite places.
We have numerous pictures, over the years,
of us all around this particular large piece of driftwood. 
It's the first time, though, that we've had Nannie in the picture!! 
 Num Num and Papa met us at the beach.... as this is a favorite spot for them as well! 
The grand-dads stayed under the picnic shelter, deep in conversation.
The lighting wasn't so good in that direction, so I'm sorry I have no pictures of them.
 Num Num wanted a shot with the kids for her yearly picture...
I thought it turned out so cute! 
 Lots of being together, laughing, and playing took place
along with a subway lunch....
 After our time here, we drove my folks on down Widbey Island. 
It sure is beautiful... even in the rain!! 
We stopped in Coopville (I'll share those pics in another post)
and then at Ft. Eby. By then the clouds had somewhat parted,
and for our trip home we saw some blue skies!

My dad purchased me the coolest map of Widbey Island. 
We hope to have it framed for future guests to enjoy
and have a better understanding of the beautiful place we live in!! 
Thanks Mom and Dad for the FABULOUS time!!
