HOT DOG

Western Washington is hitting triple digit temperatures, and thankfully, we are 'hooked up' for fun with Kristen. William got to swim in Lake Tapps, with Rainier in the background. The mountain is looking like the freezing level has been at 16,000 feet. It is more bare than I remember in recent history. You can see it in the background on this pic, but because of the haze, you have to look for it.

William screwed up his courage and went down the slide and into the lake. This is his second (and last) slide down. The first one he was balking, and all of a sudden, gravity overcame friction, and sploosh. He came up sputtering. He must've not had time to hold his breath. Pretty funny stuff. I talked him into doing 'one more for dad.'

Hi Dad! Here's your 'hot dog' cooling off!
