we had a great visit with mom and dad. then came a fun-filled week with lynn, who as expected, did the most wonderful job of tour-guiding herself around the city while we worked. we highly recommend you having her to your home if the opportunity arises. and how fun was it to have my big sister, monique, here to catch a glimpse of our lives here in the big city of vancuever (that's how the locals pronounce it; our vancoover is a dead give away that we're misplaced, from another city. i've decided to conform, chris refuses). then came tanya, chris' classmate from TUNS/Dal-Tech (whatever) who was about to embark on a bike race across BC (and who subsequently did amazingly well - yah tanya!). chris' folks will be here in a few weeks, after we spend the long august weekend with them, back on the oregon coast.
it's hard to imagine that i have 4.5 weeks of work left and chris is not far behind. vancouver did not disappoint. we've had the best year.

I've missed you!!!!! Love the pictures!!! Wait until I show them to Geordie!! He always enjoys Chrisifur's pictures!!
Geordie swam 25 yards today stopping only once for about 10 seconds. He really is our retirement plan!!
