Our first Christmas Tree at our new house.
The photo of the eagle, while not my best eagle picture (click here), represents a highlight of the holidays for me and for Julie. Growing up, Julie and her Dad took a yearly trip to the Skagit to "Eagle Watch." Apparently, a large number of Eagles return from Alaska to the Skagit Valley every year to feed on the salmon that make their way upstream. So this year, with Julie's parents home from Honduras, we decided to make the trek. Sure enough, there were many eagle's out. I didn't manage to get a great picture, but here's a sample of one. We also managed to find a great lunch spot on the way home; a BBQ shack right on the side of the road. While not much for atmosphere, (propane heater, peanut shells all over the floor), the food was great and really hit the spot. The day was a highlight for sure!
