The morning we leave...

Our visitor...




Meanwhile, inside...




Everything's back in order.

Ya'll come back now, ya hear?

We hope you had a safe trip home.
We enjoyed your visit!
Please plan to come again soon!
We will try to get carpet on those stairs
by the time you return.

After the sun sets

It was a beautiful evening!
After dinner, we headed out.
Because it was really cool and dark,
Mickey lit a small fire.
Having a great time!
darkness approaches
Good night!

Random thoughts from the mountains


We love our scrapbookers!
 Removing summer fire hazards 
and insuring warm winter fires.
 Humming birds




 It's fun to find another Red Hot Poker!
 and a tiny white butterfly!

Saying Goodbye

We have enjoyed our time at the cabin
with Crissy's family.

Will, Holly Grace, Grant

John, we missed you!

 Charlotte and her new American Girl Doll

Goodbyes
Hey, let's do it again next year!

Inside and Out


Our new sign!
 A little outside work...
 after the chain saw,
 the removal begins.
 Many hands
and a couple of 4 Wheelers 
make light work!

Projects, Projects, Projects



 Prospectors' Mystery Rock Project.
 Chemistry Set.
 Hot tub projects.

 Ropesl
 Hatchet!
Trees.


The band aid project.
Charlotte came running in this afternoon proclaiming,
"Grammy, hurry I need a band aid!  Holly is bleeding!"
Me, "OK, where is Holly bleeding?"
Charlotte, "At the tree house!"
Me, "Where on Holly's body is the blood?"
Charlotte, "Oh, on her leg.  Hurry, Holly needs a band aid NOW!"

It's always fun to watch PawPaw.
What does this mean?
Maybe... Shadrach, Meshech, & Abednego?
Waiting for the fiery furnace? 
 No, just changing the water filters!
 Thanks for the entertainment, PawPaw!
