Me n' Christy

Last Tuesday I went into Bellevue to have my friend and former neighbor cut my hair. We had our photo taken afterward. She just got married. Congratulation, Christy!

After my haircut I went over to Bel Square to poke around. They are replacing the flooring and it's amazing to me how much bigger the square looks.

New look at Bel Sq.

A blast or two from the past!

In 1965 Dave and I took a Air France airline weekend package to Paris. It was called the "Paris a-go-go weekend. " And go-go we did. There weren't too many free moments, day or night. This is a photo of me and my friend Katie in front of our hotel, The Claridge. Very nice place and still there. They were having the coldest winter since WWII and everything was rather gray. In spite of the weather, Paris had a very profound effect on me and is still my favorite city. We took a bus to the city from the airport, we came around a corner and there was the Eiffel Tower. It brought tears to my eyes. I couldn't believe I was really seeing it. Goodness, it looked just like the history books!

This has always been my favorite European site. Even in the cold, wet, and gray of January 1965.

Belated B-day Party for Dave

We had a dinner party last evening to celebrate Dave's birthday. Here he is with his cake and our friend Bonni. Below are another of our friends, Ray and Shirley. Lots of conversation and laughs.

Happy Birthday Dave!

Today is Dave's birthday. This is a photo of him doing one of the things he likes best. Poking around Mt. Rainier in showshoes. Have a great day, Dad!
