After a great time in Seattle, Mom and I travel over the mountains to the Tri-Cities with Christina and Tory. The Colombia River was beautiful and we stopped to get some sand for Tory's sandbox.

Mara put together a family gathering at their house by the river they share with Grandpa Stearns and Helen. Everyone was there except Shay. Barry was looking good. Mike was looking older. We had a really nice afternoon together.

We really enjoyed getting out with Chrissy and Tory on the bikes. We also visited the playgrounds, fed the ducks - all the stuff grandparents do!

Then we went with Chrissy and Tory to music class. She loves the music and kids.

Here's of video of Tory rocking and rolling at the graduation of her music class.

Chrissy loved the swing as much as Tory!
