Where Did Summer '17 Go?!

Welp, once again, I've been MIA from this silly blog that's pretty much written solely for personal documentation purposes. 😬  Here's only a pinch of what's been going on with Summer 2017: Elyse Edition.

Technically too early (and cold) to call it summer, but in May, Marsh and I visited Chera and her now-hubby Alex in Nova Scotia for their wedding. We had never been there, but Chera and Alex showed us a really good time and introduced us to a handful of their rad Canadian friends. By the end of the trip, Marsh and I reminded them all that we're only a hop, skip, and a jump away in the PNW. 😉

We also watched Sherman and George while their parents were out of town, and hung out with Squeeze, my favorite dog IN. 👏🏻  THE. 👏🏻  WORLD. 👏🏻 , Al Baby (of course), friends at the cabin, soon-to-be-married friends, Korea friends, and friends who appreciate a good swim in the Columbia.

Every year, me and my friends from Korea get together for a reunion. Tyler and Ara (in the middle) came to Portland/Vancouver all the way from China, and Adam and Kait came from Seattle!
