Will our malamute really stay in the boat?!?

All suited up and ready for her first trip in the raft. 

We decided to take our dog with us fishing at Lake Padden. She's 8 1/2 and never been in a boat. We had the booties and the vest and thought why not, so we took her with us today.

Wondering if she'll stay in......

- such a happy dog! Yes she really stayed in and laid down most of the day.

What a great day to be on the lake!

She thinks we should do that again!

I caught the only fish of the day - yay for me!!!

with his "Hurricane coffee" Latte in hand at the start and then at the finish!

This was his 5th running of this event. My dad has now run 61 marathons in his life!

It was a great day, temps were in the low 70's, after our cool spring it was a quick and warm transition for the marathon runners.

I put together some collages of the day - enjoy!
