Chase Shooting His Bow

This was filmed with his phone, so forgive me any poor quality issues. We were at the Archer's Den here in Eagle River. He's shooting at the wall behind the 3D targets, 20 yards. For some reason, my videos are black screen now, just click the play button and it will play.

Metal Mouth Megan!

She had a rough first day but is settling in nicely. They made the mistake of telling her she could have as many colors of bands as she wanted. Her head looks like the queen in Wonderland in this picture.

(sung to the tune of "In the Jailhouse Now", by The Soggy Bottom Boys)

I'm in the poorhouse now

I'm in the poorhouse now

I told the dentist right to his face

My girls grill's not straight so apply some brace

I'm in the poorhouse now

Colt at Cub Scout's Summer Camp

Cathy and Colt went to Colt's first summer camp. They had lots of fun and no one was carried away by mosquitos. There was a black bear that was giving the camp head aches, unfortunately he was a little too persistent and they had to shoot it. Cathy never saw it and thus never got a picture.

Colt on the obstacle course.

Cathy said this was their favorite activity. The "mechanical" bull. He looks good in the shoot...

...but wait a minute, he's riding the bull upside down. Maybe he can check the plumbing while he's down there!

Not Whoppers, But Fun Anyway

No, that's not bait.

They're Dolly Varden.

I can't figure out Justice's look. It's probably something like,"what are we gonna do with this?"

Meg's Birthday

My baby girl is 12. Only one more year 'till she knows everything.

Had to get one with the clowns in there.

Bear Rug

Per request. I forgot to take pictures before I hung it up and it's in an area where I can't get a good angle on it. Any way, these are the two best pictures I have of it. In this one you can see she has a sort of mane.

Good times.

This picture kills me.

I own a race horse too!

Seward Camp Trip May 10

On our last weekend before our Kentucky trip we went down to Seward camping. Colt and Chase were there with BSA. While they were doing scout things, I had Meg and Justice. This was on the pier. They carve all kinds of stuff out of wood. It was warm here so we stayed a while.

I think Seward is one of the most beautiful places I've been to.

This is at the start of Mount Marathon. Crazy!

We walked past Mount Marathon up the valley and turned around at this avalanche site. The snow was 20-30 feet deep at the center.

Before Colt and Cathy had to do their scouting stuff, we went to the sea life center. I could watch this octopus for hours. Amazing creature. And huge!
