May 1 - Amanda Village Visit an Balen’s Track Meet

This is my 3rd year to visit Ananda Village when the tulips are blooming. Vivid colors everywhere you look. 

Peony

Rhododendron 

Love the variegated ones

A very relaxing place to visit. 

After we got back from that, we went to the High School to watch Balen (a friend of Shan and Carl’s) throw the discus, high jump, and run a relay race. We love watching kids sports. Balen beat his personal best is us throw.
