Pleasantly tired tonight. We spent most of the afternoon searching for 'treasure boxes.'
Similar to geocaching, except using clues to hunt for boxes hidden around Skagit County for kids.
In the process we ended up at Taylor Shellfish Farms out of Bow. One of the boxes was hidden there which gave us good reason to buy fresh Dungeness crab and clams for supper. Stopped at the bakery in Bow for a late lunch - great sandwichs, quich, huckleberry pie and ginger pear tart! Umm, good. Went to to the other bakery (which has mainly breads) and got baguettes to go with the crab, then one more stop to buy fresh farm cheese and Greek yogurt.
By the time we cleaned the crabs and Scott BBQed the clams, it got pretty late, but a good day was had by all. (And the g-kids found four treasure boxes...)

  1. We do Geocaching...I think we've found close to 90 since we've started. Just introduced some friends to the sport when we went camping a month ago. It's a great thing to do with kids.
