The family goes to summer camp!

Every July some of the patients I take care of get to go to summer camp in the San Juans. Because they have some special needs, we send a few docs and some nurses to help out. It's a rough job hanging out in the San Juans for a few days, but someone's got to do it! This year I went and got to bring the whole family along as well.

The above are photos of Larson and Cora hanging out while we waited in the ferry line. For those unfamiliar with the ferry system in Washington, it's a pretty efficient and indispensible mode of transport around here, but on weekends and busy summer days, can involve a long wait in the "parking lot" that is otherwise known as the ferry line. Most people get out of their cars and hang out. We ate some snacks and enjoyed the sunshine and scenery!

The kids enjoyed playing on the beach, and we had great weather the whole time we were there.

How's this for a view right outside the dining hall?

Not one, but two jellyfish were spotted on this trip out in a rowboat with Larson, Brett, one of the other docs and her daughter!
