Shawn Montgomery and his next Cross Country runners πββοΈ will begin official tryouts next week ! Middle School π« one week later !



The 23rd edition of the Men’s World π Cup Soccer tournament is in the books, and Spain πͺπΈ added a second trophy π.
As we look forward, will we ever have the opportunity for our first crown π?
Playing the match in quite possibly the most electric venue (Seattle ) in our country, we fell hard against a talented team but far from a world power. Belgium π§πͺ (loss, 4-1) did go on to score the only goal that Spain πͺπΈ allowed on their way to winning the πππ.

It was fun to watch and cheer on the USA πΊπΈ eleven, playing in front of their own fans, and we are not there yet. The question is, will we eventually get there ?
Here’s hoping that the camp is an unprecedented experience for all that attend !



The top of Mt Baker, the one we share with our Canadian neighbors, is visible from 50 miles away !









Swinomish Lodge is the welcoming mat to Fidalgo Island π as the picture of the Twin Bridges shows just how close one is to the mainland. The other bridge is the train π trestle.
The lodge is full of Indian art and historical information.





Psalm 5:3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; in the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.


Today, we will see π Rebecca & Ronnie again βοΈ break bread π with another member of the Pic Six, Marty Graves !

What we won’t see today is the golden arches of McDonald’s because the World Cup meals are now behind us !

Maybe now, the focus can shift from collectible cups π₯€ to losing π the 10 pounds gained from eating at McDonald’s every day for the past six weeks.
If everything goes smoothly, we will have four more terrific days and then an arrival back home of late Thursday night.

Have yourself a Blessed Day πππβΊοΈ




Next Sunday afternoon should work out for me to catch up with Vickey Ritchie and Friends !
