August, already?Up

Just before I felt like it started, summer is almost over. Wildfire season is going on and we're trying to keep smoke out of the house.

I managed to get all the yard upgrades done in August while we were gone on a trip to DC for Amanda C's wedding to David C. Great time! Randall and I had a pretty amazing trip. Only thing weird was the shower at the AirBnb we stayed at. DC is looking grand these days. It reminds me of the best days I ever remember it being. But it's like that everyday now. Wide sidewalks, pretty planters and bike racks in all!

The rest of the summer will just happen weekend by weekend. No big plans or anything. We did our camping in July before the fires started. There's a big fire going on on Mt. Adams that would have ruined our Goat Rocks trip had we waited to go til August. Glad for that!

Things down the road include an October trip to the Big Island of Hawaii for Randall's birthday. So ready for that! 

Work has included lots of things: Dallas downtown districts plans, Point Reyes Lifeboat Station and Lighthouse CLRs, Blue Lake Park Master Plans, and some other random things.
