I guess this makes up for a slow posting week. I have a ton of photos. Happy Valentines Day!

We spent a nice day as a family enjoying the beautiful weather (sorry, freezing family). We drove the boys up to FR201 again and went to find a waterfall. The boys could have spent hours throwing rocks into the little creek.

They were regular mountain goats too

The truck made it down some rough road to get to this beautiful spot.

Really rough!

More throwing rocks in the water

We found a waterfall. The bigger one that we were looking for wasn’t really flowing and the truck wasn’t going to get there anyway.

That’s Bill’s coffee floating down the river…

Serious climbers!

(The reality, it’s all in the angle)

I am not sure what made this print.

“Pick me, Daddy!”

Spider on a rock

Trevor thinks he is fishing

Trevor found this outcropping where the silty pale sand had dried and cracked. He said that he was on the moon!

Only one thing to do on the moon, dig it up!

Time for a picnic

More tracks. These must be squirrel because they are so little. It is funny how they look like tiny human prints.

Poor Brendan walked right in to the end of a tree branch and it got him right over his left eye. It is developing a nice bruise.

We kept them dry the whole time, but at the very end, we told them that they could go ahead and get wet. They immediately did!

Ooops!

Warm and dry, time to go

We were still on the super bouncy and bumpy dirt road and Brendan fell asleep

That can’t be comfortable!

Trevor had a little accident tonight riding his bike. He wasn’t paying attention and he slammed into the side of Bill’s truck. The bike kept going under the truck and Trevor got laid out on the driveway with a shoe knocked off. He has some scrapes and was rattled, but he is OK. He was wearing his helmet and we are glad! He is getting too fast on that bike!

Bumps, bruises, scrapes and scratches… just the norm around here.
