The next generation




The funnest thing about family reunions -- even funner than the games (which were really fun) and better than the food (which was really good) -- is the people. Besides catching up with people we've known and loved for a long time, we got to meet a few new to the world and to us. And they got to meet us. And already we can't wait for the next reunion.

Girls' Camp

You wouldn't know by looking at the smiles that this group just fought high winds in high heat to put up tents, ate their dinner inside the tents in an attempt to keep the sand out, and hiked 1.3 miles or more (a bunch got lost and had to retrace steps) before arriving at Delicate Arch just before sunset.

They (we) were a hardy group -- hiking, rafting, mountaineering (they). I am glad to know them and know they can do anything and go anywhere.
