The past few weeks I've been busier than a Japanese beaver at work.

We've been putting together, trying to fill and set up for a 300 person, one day seminar for some our customers. It all goes off tomorrow with what will probably be a fifteen hour day. I can't wait for it to be over.

I'd still like to take you up on that heat treat, John. I also need to put that order in with McMaster Carr.

 

Take it easy John. Hopefully the weather cooperates with you all. Also, congrats to Becky and Jonny!

 

Hope the wedding goes well and you enjoy the "time off"

 

Enjoy the party after all the work. Congrats to the happy couple!

 

So I did get out the next day and here's the sun with some clouds drifting by.
Taken somewheres around 9 or 10 in the morn.


And some of the ash caught in a spyder web.


And a Flicker.
Pretty bird.

 

I hate Facebook, but my sister is on it so I am also on a limited basis.
I'll post some JKs next time I'm there.
How does one "tag" you?

 

Ok for todays hike I went back to the park with the beach, but I first hiked up a trail through the woods then hit the beach.
Going up.


And up.


And over the bridge.

The bridge from even further up the trail.
The trail did a bunch of switchbacks after the bridge, but old Myke kept plugging along to the top.


The light spot in the center of this stump is fatwood, but being in the park I naturally couldn't harvest any.


Spyder web.


Gnarly old Maples on the way down.


Cedar growing on a cedar stump.




And finally the beach.
Looking west towards the Olympic Mtns.

 

Love the pictures. The one of the sun is really amazing. It looks like a fire in the sky.

 

Great ball a fire!

 

Soothing beach sounds.

 

Thanks for the pictures again! The webs look very cool

 

DONE!

I got home about an hour ago, tore off the sport coat/business clothes, put on what the wife Cale's "comfy clothes" and opened a beer.

As usual, awesome photos Mykel. I spent so much time in a hotel conference room today that when I finally left I expected it to be dark outside. The wife and I tried to go for a walk at the local park along the Fox river yesterday afternoon but the bugs were thick enough to choke on.

 

Congrats on the (hopefully) successful project getting done! Time to enjoy this last heaping helping of summer weather blowing in!

 

John, have a great time.

Haven't posted in a while so took this shot while down in the workshop. They're sitting on a 4" thick cross cut of Koa a friend gave me.
