Codi and I went to the lavender fields today with the GvL family. We picked an entire basket full of various types of fresh lavender, dodging hundreds of bees who were equally interested in the flowers. We'll dry the lavender and hang it around the house.

I wanted to test uploading video clips to the website, so I thought I'd start with a slideshow. It's a quick run-through of about 1/3 of the polar bear photos I took this last weekend. The images will probably go by pretty quickly like a flip-book. Enjoy.
