Tess visits Seattle

Tess came up to Seattle for a long weekend a couple of weeks ago. We had a great weekend -- Mariners game, farmers market, Pike Market, Woodland Park Zoo, celebration for Woody, and, of course, the Troll. Here are some pictures of the festivities:

In Loving Memory




We recently lost our good friend, Woody. We thought we would share some photos of all the good times we shared together. We will miss him.
