Family Olympics

While the eyes of the world were on the beginning of the Olympics in China, our family spent the weekend hiding out in our cabin. Of course, since we have cell phones we are no longer totally cut off from the world at the cabin. But we let the world go by and did our own thing. Which included:
1) hiking


2) swimming3) chewing the fat (at the table and away from it)

Gold medals were won in the fields of pennyroyal tea and huckleberry picking with one loss which involved a cell phone landing in the bottom of the spring. The weather was perfect, being neither too hot nor too cool and only one brief shower before we got up on Sunday morning. This was our last scheduled weekend-away of the summer. All the traveling we have done this summer has made the season fly faster than ever. Only two weeks remain until we shift gears and go into a new school year. Although it was short, it's been a good summer.
