Autumn at Country Village


I was cleaning up my AWH hard drive, and what did I find? Dozens of great Mayer family pictures I thought had been lost.

Here is one of the best; all my girls at Country Village in Bothell, WA, some years ago. I will ask them and we'll try to figure out exactly what year it was.

Country Village of Bothell was one of the girl's favorite destinations. The best outings always included Charleene, too!

Remembering Martha JuliRae Rank: A Tragic Loss and Cold Water Safety in Washington

A Tragic Summer Loss in the Pacific Northwest The sun has finally returned to the Pacific Northwest, drawing families to the beaches and waterways of Washington. As I listen to the news of recent swimming accidents, I'm reminded of a summer when I tragically lost my family on the water. Remembering Martha JuliRae Rank and Family My little sister , Martha JulieRay Rank, would have turned 62 this fourth of July, 2025.  Rugged shoreline of Ozette Lake, Clallam County, WA She drowned at the tender age of 10 at Ozette Lake in Clallam County, Washington on July 11, 1973, along with my father, Robert Ray Rank (44), my mother, Joyce Merilyn (Black) Rank (44), and my brother, David Alan Rank (8).

Adopted; Reese, the Camano Kitty

Adopting My Camano Kitty We have a new member of the family. We adopted a seven-year-old orange tabby cat from the great folks at the Camano Island Shelter, in mid - December 2012. We're glad to share Reese's story with everyone. He's an interesting, thoughtful cat. Very respectful, and he doesn't take anything for granted. He gets along with our other cats well, even eating right beside them. It was as if they knew Reese was coming! Reese was brought into the Camano Island Shelter in late summer, and since he was a stray, he has no known history or habits to share. He was tentative at first; loud noises or play would startle him. He watched us a lot. We gave him some space; meaning, we'd "moosh" our faces into his soft belly, at least five or six times a day, although we wanted to kiss him much more. We would pet him when he was comfortable, in a spot of his own choosing. Soon, we found him sitting on the couch right by my husban...
