Joel & Derek Westeringh at work on Golden Ears bridge.
...and then to haul it to another part of the field where a dyke will be built to flood sections of the field at harvest time.
With Tyler, everything is 'Ball!' but he did take time out to listen to Sarah's ipod. "you like it?"
Brandi, dribbling the ball across the court! 'Go, Brandi, Go!'
Brandi, ready to throw the ball to a teammate as soon as that whistle goes.
After a hard-fought, well-played game it was time to get in line to thank/congratulate the other team! Way to go, Ash! (3rd from left, and in front of her, her best friend, Jenna.)
February 13, John and I & Sarah went to down to Prosser, WA to see my sister Julaine & her family. Ashley and Brandi had basketball games on Saturday. Looking at this picture, it could very easily have been Julaine! I guess Ashley inherited that thick hair from her mother!
The water was rising in Northwest Washington as well. My sister Nancy's place was surrounded, right up to the steps going into the house. Their farm was inundated with water as well so the cows and calves had to be moved to higher ground, aka neighboring farms. Dirt banks/dikes were constructed, lots of gravel was hauled in and things were starting to look a bit better by the next day.
After all the snow we had, it started raining...on frozen ground. With the rain, the snow melted but had nowhere to go. And so the rains came down and the floods came up!
Joel & Derek Westeringh at work on Golden Ears bridge.
Joel, with his safety harnessed tied to the bridge...building the deck.
Many layers of going around and around...and lots of bracing!
Joel is working on the pedestrian bridge leading to the new Golden Years Bridge out by 200th St. What a project!!

Another big scoop of wet dirt!
For work experience week with school, Dustin worked with his dad's cousins, preparing a field for cranberries. He got to operate this big excavator and this funny looking dump truck to haul the dirt away. He was digging out a lagoon which would hold all the water to flood the cranberry fields.

A dairy farm on McGuire Road was hit hard. Notice the boat next to the mobile home. Makes farming just that much harder when stuff like this happens.
