We ended summer with a backpacking trip to Pratt Lake (minus Alex) and then a trip to see the Gills on Whidbey. The backpacking was more distance and elevation than we counted on, but the serenity at the lake was worth it. On the trail we played 'would you rather' and 20 questions and talked about stuff.
On Whidbey, we stayed in the boat house right on the water. The sunrise was spectacular. We got a bit of kayaking in, a bonfire, a visit to fort casey, some cornhole, and nice catching up with Marie, Aaron, Kaye, and Lila.
Finally, as a las hurrah to summer, we went jet skiing and paddle boarding as a family. The girls preferred paddle boarding and swimming, the boys preferred jet skiing (reportedly getting to 50 mph). What a blast!
