These are all taken at Lake Easton just off of I90, a tad east of Snoqualmie on the Yakima river.
The family got together before one brother moves to California, one to Australia and perhaps I to Jakarta Indonesia.

My brother and I securing the canoe, I am at the sliding door

One that my parents liked, I am the shortest, the oldest, and on the bottom

My wife refuses to take a photo together unless she can stand on her toes then on my foot. Spot the pain behind my smile.

One with the ol fat bottomed girl

Its been 2 years and 3 months since this thread has been posted to. I think it is good one to resurrect. Many of the old photos are gone.

I find this thread quite interesting and somewhat ironic. I haven't read all eight pages, but it seems that people want to see a face behind a user name. What I find interesting is that so many people don't even sign their posts with a first name. So while we may see all kinds of pictures of a user with his or her family, vehicle, and pets, we really have no idea who they are.

I've been to VW campouts where I meet people for the first time, and at least learn their first name. I may not find out until long after that I've crossed paths with them online long before, because they don't sign their posts with a name.

I guess I just don't find it all that helpful to know that user "iluvcatsandvans" (made-up name as an example) has long hair and two kids and an '87 Westy if we don't know their name.

Is it just me?
