Fishing Weekend;

We went on a fishing/camping excursion up to Wallace Falls and the Skykomish river. Here is where i saw an eagle swoop from the tree above Eric's head. The bird was so majestic, i felt very humbled by his presence.

Look how beautiful Wallace Falls state park is! I just couldn't believe how clear the water was there, having just melted from snow. We camped there friday night, slightly dismayed that the State Parks website had mislead us. There really wasn't anywhere to fish there.



Here we're at the Skykomish, watching the sun rise over the cascades. Didn't catch jack here. But met some really nice fishermen and watched the sky turn all of these lovely colors. I bought Eric a fly fishing pole for his birthday and just couldn't wait till the 23rd to give it to him, so after camping friday night in Wallace Falls we came back and FEDEX had worked a miracle. It had arrived!


Eric is using his new pole in the Skookumchuck.

Me admiring the Northwest light. Glorious weekend accomplished.
