Pictures of our Hike today

Pictures of our hike today--we've not hiked as much as we usually do but the hikes we've taken have been really fun

Desolation Lake--we make it  wa-hoo.  it was a bit much than we bargained for when we set out--but it was fun

sign at the cross roads just say you can go 0.6 miles to dog lake or 1.9 miles to Desolation Lake we chose the later

we are watching these bikers --one was coming down this crest and going so very fast I could hardly watch most bikers come in from Guardsman pass and then on down through the  canyon --they are supposed to yield to hikers but hum...

from above it looks very green, upclose it the edge of the water looks clear and we watched little tadpoles

notice the pretty wild flowers

view looking down into Park city

a little 8 mile hike up to desolation lake today a couple more pic

more of a look at the trail..the pictures can't capture the beauty 
speaking of pictures I used the ones on the internet but mine are almost Identical  I put some of mine when I get them uploaded to the computer

What a beautiful view we saw from a ridge above Desolation Lake--we really enjoyed ourselves

more of what the trail on the way to the lake looked like

MDA Camp

What a privilege I had attending MDA camp with megan as her volunteer and as she as my 'camper"
every kid there at the (very relaxed camp) is a rock star and gets lots of attention and does crafts and attends dance party, (mascara party) -with a DJ  --talent show megan sang--)   skits, group cheers , songs , food, parades with bag pipe players leading the way.  the list goes on and on...see pics below.
  I am a better person for having gone

Hollywood day

swimming

Most people who know me know that I love --love --love to swim--
luckily this summer I have been able to do quite a bit of that in the rec pool, and in lakes (Payson--the annual family swim across the lake)  at least stick my toes in the Alaska gulf (if that counts as swimming) and also swim at one of nancy's neighbors pools with her kids and Hayley and Lucy .. and  I swam with Kaci in her pool up in the High school in Alaska and swam with Forrest at Goose Lake  and I swam with Mayley and Hunter and Hogan at  seven peaks.. (did I leave anyone out?)
 so I felt my summer was complete  I have loved it all.  what a way to exercise.  I hope that all my grand kids come to love swimming too, as the years go on-  they all are such good little swimmers
I am amazed at how kyle and Megan hold their own in the water too.  Water fun is so amazing

went hiking-wahoo

we've struggled to set time aside for hiking this summer--one of the most fun but crazy summer's ever
   last Friday however we went up above guardsman's pass and hiked and found a pretty lake.  Adrianna and Abbie came too..it was crazy cold--(we didn't expect that) and they were good sports.

soccer games

we love attending fall soccer games of the grand kids...what a good way to spend time in the fall season
best of luck to you all we will try to come to at least one or two games of each of ya  --enjoy
