"The Hole"

This set is "The Hole". Here Wally is coming to the worst spot in the run. They have to go through all the markers in the river.
We don't remember which number marker it was (I think it was #5, but I could be wrong..) but this is where about 95% of the rafters flipped the raft.

All you can see in this picture is the oar and the very top of his helmet. I wasn't even sure if he made it through while I was watching his run.. I couldn't believe I even got the pictures I was so nervous watching or trying to watch him do this run.

Here he made it through "The Hole".. whohoo for Wally!!! He was still in his raft!!!

Wally Rafting

These couple pics are a few of the best.. You can see the determination

on his face to keep the raft from flipping.

This is where he is starting to go down river.

Wally Rafting

This is the end of the run.. He managed to stay in his raft for the
whole run.. YEAH WALLY!!!


Let me tell you,, he was a cold puppy when he came on shore..
He was not used to the cold water.. and it didn't
help that he wore nylon shorts.. Either way,, he did good. I was proud of him.. :)

Sunrise at Moses Lake, Washington

So I am thinking now that Wally is getting pretty darn good at taking pictures.. I do know he is getting a really good eye for what he is envisioning when he looks in the viewfinder..
I haven't decided which of these are my favorites, but I think all of these are just beautiful!!!




Wally's uncle Jo (hi uncle Jo and Aunt Carol) moved they moved to Moses lake. It is in eastern Washington somewhere.. (I have my GPS so hopefully I won't get lost) The place is really pretty...





I didn't get to see the sunrises like this when I went, and I am glad Wally got to.. The ducks were out and you can even see them flying and in the lake.







The clouds looked like an upside down tornado,, and then he was playing with the settings and how he was holding the camera..



What ever he did... I thought they were just beautiful!!! I don't think I could have done better.
