May Day "Party"




Hurray for Community Work Parties!

R&L were busy putting up our gorgeous new signs (thanks T for her work and artistry); while V&K were wrangling with the mower, that pesky mower we so need as our spring grass rapunzels; and the rest of us Hit The Road!

Our group of eight (four big people, four little people) filled four giant trashbags with roadside litter, along one of the most gorgeous stretches of Walker Valley Road.

Hurray for litter-free lands! Hurray for Walker Creek Community!

Skookumuke Meeting at the Abbey




Skookumuke, Skagit's first ever that I'm aware of ukulele group met on a very snowy day in March.  We are up to over 8 chords thank you very much and busting out Dylan, Old Time Religion and several gospel songs.  We don't sing well, play a little worse than we sing and just have a great time.  Anyone wants to join, let us know.
