It's a wonderful image that makes the Lummis House look truly historic and aged.<br />When we set out in the car for a Sunday afternoon hike, we rush out without discussing where we're going, so when we hit the freeway onramp we have to make a flash decision so we don't go in the wrong direction. No chance to debate and argue over the merits of one place over another. It usually works out really well.<br /><br /><br />Bellishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10168550139269893109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1067046564433930606.post-82680049138673018662013-01-31T14:41:39.938-08:002013-01-31T14:41:39.938-08:00Dive, it's where you write down all those thin...Dive, it's where you write down all those things you've been wanting and meaning to do, but haven't gotten to yet.
