(July 29th)

Thursday morning Uncle Paul showed up with Kevin! We’d been waiting for him all week. Uncle Paul immediately tried to fish from the fishing hole right out front, but he has no skill. I would have shown him, but I didn’t get a fishing license. The boys loved watching. It would have been a lot more fun if he would have pulled a fish out.

Kevin showed the boys what the fish eat…

And then we took the boys on a small hike or walk. I’m sure to them it was a hike. Up the stream a little ways, there’s a large rock. One year we buried some treasures under it, and then dug them up the next spring. My best friend and I declared that this was our special spot. The stream used to run around it creating a little island. Now, there is so much growth it just creates a border for the stream. So I showed my children where I escaped to as a child, and thought how I wished Jenna had been able to make it.

After our adventures by the river, the boys found the 4 wheelers. This is where they could always be found. Picking up a tradition left of by Paul and Weston.

That would be a big “thumbs up” from Jameson!
