Viva la Vida

Last weekend was quite the action packed weekend. Friday we drove to the Gorge with David and Megan and made some buffalo burritos. But that is not all we did, we drank some beers, spent the night, and then spent Saturday in the sunshine playing lawn games such as croquet and volleyball. In the evening we went to see Coldplay. It was my 9th time. It was very different from my first time. A Coldplay concert is much more of a show now than a band playing its songs, but nevertheless it was highly enjoyable. I especially liked how they left the main stage and played a number of acoustic songs, like them good ol' days. The cover of Billy Jean was intriguing.

We spent Saturday night and then (skipping a few minor details) we drove back to the west side where we celebrated Heather's birthday at Beaverlake. The weather wasn't like Saturday at all, but at least it didn't rain. Tom learned how to aquaskip, we ate chicken, spent time in the hot tub, made smores, and ate the great rasberry cake that Megan made.

I had a chance to go through the hundreds of pictures from Hawaii and finally uploaded them. A lot of them are not up to my usual standard because we had the camera on the wrong ISO setting for a long time. Nevertheless, I still think there are some good ones.
