Nathaniel Time!

A rare day with Nathaniel! How much fun is that. Jan took a day in Portland to visit with a friend of ours who is having her first kid, and Nathaniel and I got to hang out for the day.........

First, we had breakfast at Bettes......

Nathaniel insisted that we put our shoes under the table. I managed to keep it together for about half an hour, but after a bit, he just started goofing off.......

After that, we checked out our building, picked up some nails, Visited John Hart at the Kayak Shed, had some coffee at Dog River and then headed back home.......



I wanted to go up the valley and check out the Pine Grove auction, but Nathaniel went on strike!

We had to stop and refuel.......



Then we went up and checked our the Pine Grove Fire Station! This is Nathaniels favorite engine. Every year the Frie Department has a pretty cool auction and raises money. It was really busy, and after an hour or two, we got hungry....Since we were up the valley, we stopped at Panorama point for a picnic.........






And then.......Nathaniel took a nap.....Fun!



Sunday.........Friends over for Breakfast! Patricia and Walther just had a new kid, Wyatt. Their daughter, Peyton and them came over for breakfast.....Lots of doughnuts and coffee!





Later, Nathaniel and Jan did some gardening......I had to do an open house....
