One more stop – a week-end with the Shoe Crew camping at Kern River;-)  They were ready to try out their new trailer and we couldn’t wait to see them and have a fun time enjoying the river, hiking, playing games AND eating s’mores – –

Heather, Christian and family (and their new trailer) near Lake Isabella, CA.

The smoke from fires was with us again – but we still had FUN!

Hey, here’s a shot that actually has gramps in the picture;-)

This beautiful blue heron watched the kayakers until they got too close..

…and then headed up river.

Back to communing with nature in the Sequoia National Forest.

Haley led the way. She seemed to always be 20 yards ahead.

Love hugging these Giants.

On a hike, climbing always seems to be in order…

….sometimes even climbing inside of a tree!

Gramps, Gramma, Kira, Haley and Olivia.

What a wonderful summer of family, friends, exploring our National Parks, golf, experiencing a Total Eclipse, enjoying plays of the Oregon Shakespeare Festival and creating many NEW adventures.  What better way to end the summer than with family on a camping trip;-)

Magic is now ‘put to bed’ for the winter and E & G are gearing up for the holidays.

Much love to all…E&G
