WENATCHEE RIVERFRONT
March 13, 2018
This year the Columbia River flooded parts of the Apple Capital Loop Trail. Click here for a local news article about the record water flow. Here’s a neat video that I found…
This place is where we cruise on our scooters and skateboards, throw rocks in the river, and play at Walla Walla Point Park. On this gorgeous, clear day, Todd geared up, wearing Eric’s old Vuarnet glasses…
Gearing up
This section of shoreline was recently restored, but here it is under water.

This video shows where we normally throw rocks. Not this day!
Todd loves this swing at Walla Walla Point Park. He’s not too big for it yet!

So fab! – May 13, 2018
After the breaths of fresh air, we drove over to Pybus Market. First, Todd and I shared a super creamy, non-dairy gelato from Ice. The entire ‘front row’ of gelato at Ice is non-dairy. {{Big cheer!!}}

Next, we met Eric over at Wenatchee Valley Brewing Company (also located in Pybus). We ordered the Spring pizza special. Oh my goodness, I do love arugula!!

OCEAN SHORES, WA
May 4 – 6, 2018
FRIDAY, MAY 4
This was a non-workday for me, so we took the opportunity to visit Eric’s parents for a 3-day weekend. On the way to the beach, we stopped in North Bend, WA to fuel up. At a Starbuck’s, Todd was chillin’…
Next, we stopped at Vic’s Pizzeria (Olympia, WA) for a scrumptious vegan pizza and vegan calzone. This time we tried the Capitol Blvd location, located in a lovely forested neighborhood. We had plenty of leftovers to enjoy for days…

We arrived in Ocean Shores, got settled in, then splashed in the waves…
Headed out
Waiting for a good one
Run!
Back for more!
We had a lot of stuff to dodge on the beach (which had a certain beauty)…
Careful steps
Nature’s beauty
Another good one

SATURDAY, MAY 5
In the morning, we went to Damon Point beach. Todd agreed to wear sunglasses…what a breakthrough! [Actually we gave him no choice, but he didn’t fight it]. After beach time, we went shopping in town. Todd picked out a whoopee cushion.

In the afternoon, we rode our scooters. After that, we splashed in the ocean.

When we came inside, Todd fell asleep on the couch. I tried to wake him up in the evening, but he was OUT. Eric said, “We might have miscalculated not giving him a nap” 😀 He was carried to bed and never woke up until the next morning.

We were chased by the waves one last time before our journey home.
Elisa & Todd – May 6, 2018
Darren and Sandie stopped by, and some great photos were taken. Todd napped in the car during the drive.
