Hola


Lynden is one of my favorite little towns here. It is a community of Dutch Reformed Christians. There is the cutest street which is the main strip (called Front Street) where all the restaurants, shops, windmill replicas and wooden shoes are. This picture was taken in front of a little canal by the restaurant where we had lunch. When you come to visit (hint hint) we'll definitely make Lynden one of our stops.

Here is the neighbor who had the auger who helped us with our mailbox. Here's the 8 foot corn by the neighbor who had the auger who helped us with our mailbox. Here's the mailbox that needs some mail (hint hint) by the 8 foot corn by the neighbor who had the auger who helped us with our mailbox.
We took a hike at Nooksack River yesterday for Labor Day. As soon as Jim downloads the pictures, I'll post some. It's like walking in the Amazon without the threat of Anacondas or malaria-carrying insects. In fact, I didn't see one living creature besides the lush flora. There is a path with bridges and stairs and logs on the side made by the forest service and some inmates from a local prison. We were so grateful. It is just beautiful. The river is glacier-fed from Mount Baker and the salmon will start their spawning soon. That will be a site to see.

I like your "The House That Jack Built" type story and the fact that you had to give credit to the nice inmates who built your little stairs on the trail! :-) Have you received my real letter yet in your mailbox that your neighbor's auger helped build?
