Melanie is relaxed and I was on vacation. A great trip to another mountainous and wild place, but its always great to get home!

Harts Pass No. 113
Running in the woods last week -- in the heat of the day no less -- I was frankly shocked to cross paths with so many rabbits, squirrels, chipmunks (even a black bear) etc. at various trail junctures. Apparently, the summer "crush" of traffic extends beyond downtown Winthrop!

Harts Pass No. 112
Mega-commercialism and the Olympics. Hand-in-hand since 1984 -- or at least that's when I'm led to believe that somebody REALLY started cashing in :) When you might be crossing a line by displaying the Olympic rings (freshly made no less) in your bakery window or other such grass roots celebratory efforts, then things have probably gone too far.And please stop showing the professional athlete "Olympic Dream" commercials. THAT is never the story here people!

Harts Pass No. 111 - The Olympiad Edition!
With no television reception, and limited online viewing access, the critters at Harts Pass are a bit disgruntled over their capacity to follow The Games of the 30th Olympiad. Thor considered a border hop north to Canada, but Kit and other young animal friends have taken the Olympic Spirit and run with it... Bring 'em on!

Harts Pass No. 110
Last week's Harts Pass, plus a couple of the final images from Arts Fest! Just a little touch-up work on these to bring the back the black line after MANY hands, brushes, and puddles of house paint!

Harts Pass No. 108 & 109
HOT days in the North Cascades last week, and that (plus a 4 day backpacking venture) be my excuse for posting No. 108 a little late. Methow Valley News subscribers had their weekly dose of HP right on time -- with plenty of newsprint to spare for fans and paper sun hats!

Mazama Festival of Books Update!
Mazama's first annual Mazama Book Festival continues to make news with recent mentions in The Seattle Times, Publisher's Weekly, and the LA Times .
On Sunday, August 19th I'll be sitting down with veteran public radio host Katherine Lanpher to talk children's books and book illustration in this fabulous mountain setting that I call home.
Methow Arts has the most current schedule and I will post additional news as I have it as well. Until then, happy summer!
