Look at Alicia!!!!! 

Yes...this is Alicia Phillips and she is learning to water ski on Wattsbar lake in Tennessee. 

Steve and Alicia on Wattsbar Lake in Tennessee. 

Here is the walkway down to the dock in Tenn. Looks like my plants are doing pretty well. 

Oh yes!!! How beautiful. Picture of the view off of our deck in Tenn. Willard took these to get us home!!! 

Here is a picture of my brother Willard with his catch of crappy from our dock! Lots of good eat'in to be had here! Save some for us Willard!!!! 

Look at these two babe's. They are standing on our dock with the crappy they caught! This is Emily's friend Beverly and my niece Emily. We are anxious to get back to Watts Bar Lake! 

When we go on hikes, the girls drink from my hand. Josie is waiting patiently for Roxie to finish her drink. 

Here's a mean looking bear! 

Can you see the bear claw marks on this Aspen? 

Dave and I hiked up to the scratching post that we saw while riding up a gondola in the snow. The snow has melted and we were able to hike up to the trees. 

We did see these Sea Lions on the whale watching trip. 

This was taken in Anacortes, WA. We were heading out in this boat to whale watch. Notice it is an open boat. 120 miles later....no whales. Froze our "you know whats" off. We call it the whale watching trip from hell. Another crazy experience we will never forget. 

A cute couple took our picture for us. Josie isn't so sure she likes the rushing water. 

 

This is the Rouge Gorge. Do you notice the rainbow? Beautiful area in Oregon. 

 

A living stump. 

Crater Lake. 

This is the doorway to the pipe to look out over Crater Lake. 

In the winter, this pipe is buried and it is the only way to see Crater Lake. 

There was still lots of snow at Crater Lake. We have Flat Stanley duty. That is what Dave is holding up. Parker's school project. We did one for Emily one year. 

On our trip back from Seattle, we stopped by Crater Lake. 

Here's another one for Gavin. He or she is black. In the left hand corner. 

This picture is for Gavin. A lizard was just sitting there looking at me.
