We had a very busy and fun summer and fall. Here are some highlights.
Family reunion pic! Wish more people could have made it to the picture, but very nice job by Andrew.
One of many highlights of family reunion!
On way to family reunion traveling with Paul and Rebecca, I asked if they had ever stopped at Thompson Springs and suggested we take a few minutes to check it out as it is just about 5 minutes off I-70.
Humanoids eerily peering over the bushes.
Fremont style petroglyphs.
Strange humanoids.
So good to see you! Steve took us out to lunch! Eleanor, Charles, Mary, and Matthew.
Family reunion tidbits, Rebecca, mom, Patrick and Janis (barely arrived on time).
Love my sis's! I insisted we get at least a pic of the 4 of us!
Love being with my sis's. We laugh a lot!
We had several episodes of backyard flooding with the heavy rains this year. This pool in our backyard happened in 30 minutes or less.
Miss Piggy was outside in the dog house when it happened . Poor thing!
Went camping a few times with just me, the car, and a couple of dogs. On this trip, Jasmine and I took King back to his "mom" in Vernal. Here we are camping north of Vernal on the way to Flaming Gorge.
Fireside and moonlight.
A Kingly smile.
On the way back home to Grand Junction, cooling off at the Green River.
There was a wildfire on the way home between Rangley and Douglas Pass.
Here Jasmine is looking back towards wildfire from Douglas Pass.
We didn't see a whole lot of columbines this year as the season was short for it, but here are some on Douglas Pass.

On our way to the Drive-Inn movies in Delta. In celebration of the location of our first date, we went an unprecedented 6 times this summer.

Come on in, the water is nice! The hot springs enters the Crystal River at 140 degrees Fahrenheit!
Anniversary day trip to Telluride during Telluride Film Fest.
This is view from gondola. We didn't attend any movies because they were asking $25 per ticket. We can wait to see "12 years a slave."
These dogs are an example of the cool dog attitude in Telluride. There are dog tie ups everywhere. Why is it the really expensive places to live are also really cool places to have a dog?
Gorgeous flower display in Telluride.

View from the free gondola ride from Telluride up over the mountain and then down again to Mountain Village on the other side. Oh, and dogs can ride the gondola too.
