Snoqualmie

While Daddy, Grandpa Lee and Aunt Laura hiked the Chillkoot Pass in Alaska, Mommy and Ava visited Mommy's college roommate and dear friend Becca and her parents and brother in her parents' beautiful home in Snoqualmie, WA, east of Seattle at the base of the Cascades.  They have several acres, on which can be found cows, chickens, dogs, pastures for diaper-free time, and impressive patches of blueberries and raspberries.  Ava is adept at picking her own blueberries, usually the blue ones.  Ava and Mommy had a lovely visit, were very well taken care of, and are most grateful.

Sharing cherries with Becca, and eating home-grown broccoli:

Mommy and Becca carefully picked some young wild nettle plants for a breakfast scramble.  Ava's first nettle:
