Things have been pretty surreal!
My life has been pretty crazy lately!!I lost my camera on the camping trip and searched everything several times. I had given up and figured it was dropped or lifted by a passer-by when I decided to just ask Heavenly Father if it was gone just to let me know cause it was driving me crazy looking for it. So the next day I picked up my scripture bag and took out my scriptures and there it was in the bottom. I know I looked in there and had read my scriptures too. Well I am glad to have it back and to have the photos. (Prayer works!) Although the photos are very mixed up right now and no order. I want to thank the ladies for all the great times so far this year, we will be winding up our year this week. Thanks to my very dearest friend Maren Hansen for joining us on our camping adventure and I hope she can come up from southern California again next summer and join the madness.
Our feet. Don't ask me why but we have years of feet pictures. I need to buy some really fun shoes now.
Cathy is always on the ball. We can count on her to get things really rolling.
You know, some people tell me I dress weird but I think Teresa has me beat for sure.
This is how we roll!
Lunch on the road. Here are some real rock stars.
Twenty five miles in to Spokane!
Spokane Falls. A great ride.
We are so creative with our pictures. (I will show you how it's done..wink wink)
The artsy shadow was just of the bike so Sally added the rider. Of course I was only supposed to get the shadow rider in. She has a cute butt anyway so it does not matter. Oops i forgot to flip it.
A real flower child!
We could put this on a calendar.
I am almost surprised we don't have real china. The food was that good.
Sally slept the first night outside under the stars, until it started getting windy and some lightening. Judy slept in the trailer the next night. The stars were amazing.
Yep, they will do anything for a picture. Or are they practicing for Survivor?
Our camp was top of the line, we spared no expense.
More food, oh yeah. We sure can cook
We do ride in some awful pretty country. We sure are lucky.
Ahh the Taj Mahal....Our tent. Well we were a little crowded and a little whiny. I think overall though it was pretty good. Thank heavens there was no rain.
Tree huggers or muggers. For some reason we look like more people than we are..........I wonder if people that see us do this stuff think we are weird or maybe Japanese. They love to pose too.
There is no greater joy than relaxing around a campfire. We sure had some good food!
What a beautiful day!
What a great camping trip. What a beautiful place. We have to revisit that place for sure.
Our ride to Higgens Point ended with breakfast (THANK YOU SALLY). The waffles with pecans, caramel, and whipped cream probably deleted any good the ride did though! It was worth it though.
It is amazing how good a sack lunch tastes out in the woods after hiking. Is that tupperware in her hand? Cathy always has good food. I like sitting next to her cause she shares the goodness.
Three little monkeys sitting on a tree! Teasing, teasing , you can't catch me, along comes Mr. Crocadile........ No, but these ladies will do just about anything you ask them for a great picture.
I bring my grandkids here and the five year olds scurry up this fallen tree's roots and hoot and holler when they get up there. Well I thought I would give it a try.......I am getting old!!! It was harder than they made it look.
One of my favorite books as a child was "My side of the Mountain" where the little boy runs away and lives in a hollow tree. I guess he was much smaller. Not much room in there.
Look at us glowing. Ahh the Cedar Forest. It is like going back into prehistoric times. I kept waiting for a dinosaur to jump out.
Yes, a snake in the grass. I did not see it cause I would have caught it. Cathy assures me it was not poisonous.
The beginning of my 55th birthday century. Unfortunately we had to stop at 30 miles to take my husband to the hospital after he crashed into a pole in the middle of the trail. He is fine and I am sure I could have made it on my smokin new bike he bought me for my birthday. A Carpe Diem Orbea, oh yeah, can't wait for spring!!!
