Father-Son weekend

While Mommy was doing the 3Day walk Beckett and Daddy had 3 days and 3 nights in Seattle to bachelor it with Uncle Steve, Aunt Lana and Miki. We spent most of our time in the arboretum, but did get to do a few other exciting things - like visiting the aquarium, eating sushi in Bellevue and seeing the Ballard Locks. Here's a few highlight photos...


Hey dad, that tank has a fish in it.


And another fish there, and another fish there...


Uh, I don't like the giant octopus.


I like this octopus better


A pick or a scratch? Either way it's a cool painting.


Free Willy!!!



Beckett the salmon.


He climbs anything - don't worry, it's only a 20 ft drop from there into Puget Sound.

Real smile :)



Let me try uncle Steve!!! This is a huge climbing wall at Marymore park in redmond, built with MicroSoft money. It's very impressive - a beautiful park.



Aunt Lana let us take the Saab to the Ballard Locks - it was a little dicey at first, but Beckett really liked it after we got going.


More climbing - this time it's only a 15 foot drop into the Locks...


More climbing.


Ballard was a big hit, Beckett got to work out energy and see tons of boats, salmon jumping and seabirds everywhere.


It was a long weekend...
