Wickiup/Twin Lakes adventure: thanks to all it was a fun and delicious weekend. The weather was perfect, the skies were blue, and we had wonderful cabin neighbors. I really enjoyed spending time with the gang of 14 and over eating. Darren's fresh caught trout for breakfast and Seraph's pancakes were the frosting on the camping cake. I've never tasted such fresh fish and also never realized that Darren was such an outdoors person. He also brought a boat which facilitated the catching of those tasy fish! He was in heaven! I also felt a bit guilty coming home early..mostly so I could take a nice hot shower and get into my nice comfy bed! Hat's off to Sue for sleeping outside on the picnic table (now that's what I call roughing it!) and for taking Ducky and the grandkids on long walks. I also noticed that Lohring ate his weight in chips and cookies! I of course got hooked on the raisin bread and salad greens. Hanni came on Sunday with a big bottle of wine and her famous brownies. Special thanks to Robbie for buying the gold plated mayo...he learned about inflation at the country store...$3.50 for a small jar! Jenny was calm, relaxed and happy and Adam and Sam explored the lake like early pioneers. It was so nice to see Sam experiencing so many new adventures. I was amazed that Isabel turned down something to eat and said, "it's not my thing." Wow..from a 3 year old yet! And of course Destin remained the super hero with the kids chasing after him in adoration. Jordan was also in his happy-go-lucky element despite trying to escape from the cottage to explore the water. The best of all was Ducky, who was the primo watch dog. I don't know how Seraph managed to do any of her homework..she was busy cooking and organizing stuff and trying to sketch at the same time. Thanks to everyone for making this such a memorable weekend.

Just a reminder that we'll be in Montana next week. We'll be gone from the 16-20th. Glacier National park is on the agenda and then boat racing at Crazy Al's race!
