When we came out on our Bellevue visit back in February 2011 to assess schools, housing and the like we had been, very briefly, to Beaver lake with the person showing us around the area. She had been keen for us to live in the Sammamish area but we had decided the journey to work would be too far. Beaver Lake had then been completely off our radar until Toby’s soccer team had their end of season party there.
Having seen how lovely and quiet it was, even on a warm day, we had purchased a kayak/boat for the boys to take out on the lake. It was the ideal place for them to play because there were no speed boats buzzing around and therefore no wake to tip them over!
This was our second trip up to the lake with the boat and confidence was high. This time they took the rubber ring as well so they could both be out in the lake at the same time.
One day when we’re rich I might just buy the house in the second photo – it’s a lovely house in a beautiful setting. We will also need the detachable decking that people seem to float about on with deck chairs! They are always there and that seems the height of luxury to me!
