Start Me UP, Again, Already!

Another wonder-full day at City of Rocks.
A storm was moving in.
This dog picked me to hide out the storm under.  I loved it.
Finally, we had to pick a little cave to hide out in until the storm passed.  I loved it.

I Had A Birthday. 21st

Yes, I turned 21.  I had a fun party and everyone got me either a Dora toy or Little People.  See my niece clapping in the lower left corner??  That's because every toy I got is one that she REALLY wanted.

Climbing Lessons...in the City

The Crew; Karmen, Action Jaxson, Tricie, Parker, Kimmer, and Joe - Leslie, Marshall, and Nicole are on the ground.
Who is this with the much improved climbing form?? It's Me.
I'm loving it.
OK, this means ' enough' and 'down'.
Thanks, Marshall. You're the BEST.
Mother and Daughter
I've got you, no worries.
....and this is how we do it.
Patrice doesn't even seem nervous...and she wasn't, she's a natural.
There she is! WAY up there...a tiny speck.
....even tinier.
This is 'Action Jackson'.
First time on rock and he was fearless!
First step, teach Jaxson that we weren't surfing...after that it was all up hill.
I don't know if he would be a better surfer or climber!



Mom, can we have a dog? Please, please, please.
My favorite Nephew and baby Karmens' arms...who I rescued in the other picture.
Ahhhh, here's the girl.
Fun at the Emery Pass Spring. The BEST water on earth.
Bye, bye. We'll be back soon.

Babe in the City

Hiking around Bath Rock, in City of Rocks, Idaho
Look at my Dad on the rock. I wish I could do that. He's my hero (and we do have on matching outfits, again).
Align Center
This is typically how I pass the time while my Dad climbs and my Mom takes pictures. Not too bad.
These are some new signs in the National Reserve. Nice, eh?
This is a cool cave behind Castle Rock (we match).
...and who says fat boys can't enjoy life?
Mom and Dad.
Catch them, they're trying to get away. No, they would take me with them. Look, my Dad is climbing in his Crocs and he just about had a 'wardrobe malfunction' here. Whew...that would be sort of embarrassing for him.

Five on a glider swing.
I have never seen a magically, enchanting Cocobaird.
OK, I've got something to say...

This is ALL I have to say.

I'm A Natural...

...Something.
This is how you do it.
OK, Go.

Perfect Weekend in Almo, Idaho

First Stop: Tracy General Store for goodies.
Second: Drive around Castle Rocks and then City of Rocks to make sure everything is still there. Sometimes we run into friends (meet them, not over them) and I get to shake their hands.
Third: Say Hi to Mike at the Roll-off. Don't know what a roll-off is? It's a big dumpster. There are two big dumpsters here. Once we saw 2 owls - one flying from the fence and one sitting in the rafters.
Forth: Dinner at The Outpost Steakhouse. I love everyone in this picture. I always get the same thing; grilled cheese, french fries, and orange juice. Em (on my left) is the best cook. She is always smiling and laughing and I like to dance with her. She's a pretty good dancer.
Fifth: A swim at Durfee Hot Springs. Plain, old, awesomeness.
Abstract; I DO have a swimsuit on...and I'm pretty sure that's a mermaid I'm holding.
Sixth: Ready to go to church. We have matching ties on - in case you didn't notice.
Almo Ward. My Favorite.
Here we are. It's all good. The best, even.
