(Camppy)

Camping in Index, WA made for a splendid weekend. This time I brought Kathryn and her two dogs Hazel and Rosy Bear. The weather was great and the bugs were less bitey. Kathryn did all the shopping and cooking. The dogs were in heaven. The Skykomish river was running lower than on our last trip, but the fish were still not around. I did get to take a chilly dip in the river. I also got a wild ride on a dune buggy/go kart contraption driven by a guy named Chris that we met. And on our way back, we toured the incredible Reptile Zoo in Monroe, where I stared down an alligator.
