So there I was, putting the finishing touches on my revisions, when the carrier John Stennis came steaming home.
Welcome home, Navy guys! This closeup gives you a perspective of its size. Note the 200-car Washington State Ferry in the background:
In fact, seeing how tiny and vulnerable the people on deck look was the inspiration for the mishap in one of my books.
Barkis took it in stride…
But the show wasn’t over. Along came a shiny new yacht, with a helocopter hovering overhead, apparently filming or photographing it.

Barkis is just beautiful! Growing up indeed! I would love to see him from the front!

I agree with Meg. Barkis is so big so fast! I can’t believe it.
The photos are very impressive. Nice view!

Is Barkis getting you trained?
Or did you go prancing out there in your PJs again?

When I first saw the most recent pic of Barkis, I realized howmuch can change in just a few months. He’s so pretty! My daughter has a King Charles Cavalier ( about 4 mos. old, and an English bulldog-13mos. If I can figure out how to send pics, I will.

Oh, joy. Dogs. We’ve just become mummy and daddy to our first dog! Not sure who is in control right at the moment, but at least we’ve got the pooping outside in control!
Where had the boat come back from? Very impressive against the background.

Susan – what great pictures and to see that from your home is especially amazing. What mountain is in the background? Barkis is a cutie!

Jane–The Stennis is back from the Middle East. Much joy in Bremerton this week!
Margaret–It’s Mount Rainier, the 4th highest peak in the continental US! I feel so lucky to have this view.
