East Meets West
« Reply #-1 on: July 23, 2013, 09:39:03 PM »
We had a visit from Randy and Lauren (flbentrider) . They went out of  their way to visit us in Puyallup. They brought us some nice flowers from Pike place market in Seattle were Still enjoying out on the deck. We made Steak, twice bake tators and some really salty coleslaw :) We snacked on some Iranian cashews MoHuka sent me when he was in Saudi Arabia before dinner. I really enjoyed the visit and meeting Randy and Lauren. Here's a few pics.

After our visit they were off to Oregon on the Amtrak train to go visit friends and the Mak pellet smoker factory, How cool is that :)

Always good to be able to put a face with the name / avatar...I wish more folks would do that.

I understand the turtle's reluctance, but I think most of the others would be cool with it.

What say you?
