Stanley

So as Dad mentioned last weekend was Field Day for Ham radio. It's a world wide event to see how many contacts you can make in 24 hours. We had a lot of fun. While yes we did miss some family events this weekend but we know that they understand because of how much Mom loves being out doors and she Loves going to Field day. It wasn't that long ago that she was on the radio trying to make contacts herself. I really think she enjoys camping so much now days because she doesn't have to do the cooking. I'm still trying to figure out how I ended up filling in for that job. We were up in Stanley and we camped up on this ridge that over looked the Valley with the beautiful Saw Tooth mountains in the background. What a breath taking view! Mom had a really great weekend. She did well on the drive up and fabulous on Friday. Saturday she had a few bumps that she was working through but by bedtime she seemed to be doing fine. Sunday morning we broke camp and were already to head home but not before we got this picture. We had a hard time getting her to smile at first but since she wouldn't say "cheese" for the camera I asked her if she would at least fart for the camera she thought that was pretty funny so we were able to snap this picture.

We're trying to decide where the next pictures will come from but we're thinking Lost Lake up by New Meadows So stayed tuned.
