my mom saw a lady at the mariners game with this color nail polish on her toes and loved it. we're not sure if it translated well, but it is bright and summer-y. perfect for our trip to sandpoint.

could you fit MORE people on a boat? i felt like i was on pirates of the caribbean because we riding so low on the water.
documentation of the first time in tagg's life that he sat still for more than thirty seconds. the boat lulled him into a trance. i loved it!

bridge jumping. this is anna, mid-air. it didnt seem that scary when i was looking up from the water. but when i got up there to jump myself, it was a different story. but i still jumped and it was a rush.
