an interview with Dad and his new best friend

i took the opportunity to chat with Dad about his new truck.......




also checked in with Mom too......

old orchard trail

this may be tedious for some but i could spend many more hours or days or weeks "making trail" here.....so beautiful....this is the second year i have spent some time opening up this trail through an old, forgotten and overgrown orchard. it travels up the hillside to a beautiful meadow, more old orchard and trees. stunning really.....my sister and i have some ideas.....oh man, with my love of the trails and beauty spots and her eye for the old is new again!!!!!!!

a day in St.Maries

we went in for some thrift shopping, hardware, lunch at Bud's Drive Inn (excellent wireless connection!)


it was a great day...the people in St.Maries were fantastic(just like last year) my sister was asked about the bandage(huge) on her hand(recent surgery) 5 times!!!!

here we are shopping......

another annual sister reunion......here we are at Black Lake, Idaho at my sister's cabin....another great get away........
