UPDATE 26 JUNE 12

We were visited by Shelley, Sheryl, and Reese for a few days a few weeks ago.  I am running a little behind in posting on the blog as you can probably tell.  We had a great time with them.  Reese (Shelley's granddaughter) got to do some horse back riding.  She is "hooked" on horses - kind of like Connie was at her age I guess.  We also did some hiking, cooked a few marshmallows over the campfire, and ate a lot of good food.  Ryan (Shelley's son & Reese's father) came up for a few days and took Reese back to Utah.  Shelley and Sheryl headed back over to Washington.

Sheryl, Reese, and Connie taking a ride out in the woods.  They got to see some elk which always makes the ride more enjoyable.

We took them on a hike up to the falls at Como Lake and saw this Osprey on her nest.

Cooling off their feet.

Connie and Reese headed out to catch horses.

They got to see lots of wildlife while here.  Click to enlarge and you can see a doe eating on our rose bushes!

Our slab always gets covered with art.

Reese seems to like her "smors".

The Indian Paint Brush was all over.

We did get to see a number of elk on our hikes.

Never seen this bug before.  It was right in a mineral lick.
