1. Fantastic. Such beauty to share with wonderful friends.

   1. Nessa — it was a great visit. I think we should do it again — after I catch up on my sleep!

2. Beautiful, Thank you for sharing.

   1. Hi Bill,

      I visited your Old Fart’s blog …

      “Just a few rantings from a ‘Half Century’ “Old Fart”. What you will be reading here will not change the world, or have any profound effect on anyone or anything. It is just a place for me to share a thing or two and hopefully give you a break from the day to day toils and troubles of life”.

      Thank you for sharing.

   2. Bill — thank you for the pat on the head. I feel like a good puppy now.

3. Perfect. I would love to be there with you and that beautiful scenery!

   1. Betty — the scenery is so perfect, I expect people to doubt that it’s real.

4. Mmmm. Eagle. Fire up the grill.

   1. Bad Dawg, bad!

5. The photo of the lighthouse looks like a painting — can’t possibly be real! What a stunning set of photos and what beautiful weather God gave you for the visit! Wow!

   1. Kelley — see my comment to Betty above! LOL!

6. Great pictures 😀

   1. Thanks, Teresa.

7. These are absolutely exquisite photos, Quilly. I’ll bet everybody would like to frame theirs. The one of Susan’s youngest amongst the flowers, priceless!

   1. Kay — I like the one of the baby in the flowers, too — Susan got an even better shot.

8. For some reason, I can’t see the pictures!

   1. Mama Zen — I don’t know what’s up with that.

9. Great photos! You are so lucky to get great shots of the eagles. They are here in PA, just seldomly seen.

   1. Church Lady — these folks were hanging out because the sheriff had just left them fresh meat.

10. Those are all such great photos. Love the lighthouse view especially.

    1. Barbara — that light house view always takes my breath away.

11. The gang has just left the house here and we had such a great visit! The kid played in the yard and the rest of us sat out on the deck while Thom froze — it is chilly here. It was so wonderful to see Thom again and to finally meet Susan and her family. I love your pictures and the lighthouse does indeed take my breath away, too! I’m going to try to meet them tomorrow, but transportation may be a little iffy! They had such a great visit with you and Amoeba! What fun this has been and I hope we can do it again one day and hopefully I can finally meet you guys as well! Enjoy your weekend!

    1. Sylvia — you are always welcome to visit. Poor Thom. He’s missing Hawaii’s heat big time. LOL!

12. Beautiful Photos. The eagles are unbelieveable.

    1. Betty — we were in awe! I feel blessed to have gotten this shot.

13. .
    Nice pictures, Quilly. You picked a pretty place to live. 🙂
    My vote is for the ‘Two Eagles” photo if I’m allowed to vote.

       I forgot to ask, is there a golf course on the island?
       ..

       1. Mr. Jim Hoverdick,

          We’re all quite sure you wrote (on another blog post) that you researched San Juan Island.

          Regards

       2. Jim — there is a golf course on the island — the San Juan Golf and Country Club.

          Please ignore Karen. She is seriously working on wearing out her welcome here.

14. Such gorgeous views and amazing shots!!!! no wonder I love visiting here 🙂
    Soccer world championship is keeping me from blogging, because it comes with live facebook and twitter activities 8)

    1. Mar — my company has kept me too busy to blog, but I am still having fun!

15. Wonderful photos! Every shot says so much, but Susan’s little princess on the flower field is definitely my favorite.

    1. Rosidah — I love that one, too.

16. Quilly, that first photograph invited me to crawl right in through my monitor. And WOW!! You sure shared some stunners today! 😀

    1. Karen — these are so incredible that they awed me, too!

17. WOW what great shots! I wish I’d been there. 🙂

    1. Akelamalu — if you had been I am certain there’d have been even more laughter and silliness!

18. Those are absolutely stunning. I especially love the tall trees in the first one. And the toddler in the flowers!

    1. Linda — I am in still in awe of the eagles.

19. Gorgeous!
    I was just telling some of my homeschool pals about you and your island and the invite to that lab.
    I can’t wait till the schedule allows us a visit.

    1. Logo — just make certain you let us know ahead. Thom and Susan didn’t get much of a tour because of the summer class schedule. We’ll need to make certain that both Amoeba and the labs are accessible. Other than that, I know he loves showing this stuff to interested kids (and adults).

20. Looks to be a beautiful place. Would love to visit there someday.

    1. Kala — this island is spectacular. Ask Thom. He has fallen in love with it — well, all but the temperature!

21. Oh my gosh… I am sO jealous! Of the FUN you’re having… AND of that LAST eagle shot!

    1. Mellii — stay tuned — I have more.

22. WOW, beautiful views, incredible photos. Thanks for sharing them, Quilly!

23. Gosh, Quilly, these photos alone are already half a vacation for me.
    Love them!

24. I love those photos!

    Funny, most of the ones I have of you, you’re hidden behind your camera LOL
