The Twisp Ponds is an excellent place for a quiet nature walk close to town. It was established in 2002 when the Methow Salmon Recovery Foundation purchased the 37-acre property to prevent development and restore salmon.
My friend Karen's husband, Bruce Morrison, is a local sculptor who created some of the art installations (above) along the trail.
Anyway, we had the place to ourselves on a hot morning, and found a comfortable log to sit and yak by the river. Life is good.
Today is Amanda's bittersweet last day at Family Health Center, where she began her nursing career over 10 years ago, working her way up from Medical Assistant to Registered Nurse to Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner.
When they return from Europe, she starts a new position with Confluence Health, a larger organization based in Wenatchee offering much more in the way of benefits and professional support. A big step up and a new phase of her career begins. Congratulations!
I've been invited to a party tonight with her friends and coworkers. Fun. Tomorrow, back to big city life.
