Horseback

 Badger contemplates biting Aden's hand off.

Maya, Nana, and Butch.

 Cale holds on for dear life.

And of course we had to visit Zeke before leaving.

Spider in the ash

On Tuesday it drizzled ash during the afternoon.

Smoky Sunset

This was on Sunday. Since then it's just been hazy/smoky. I ditched the bike riding this week b/c my asthma was kicking up.

Fire in the Sky

Yesterday I took the kids to the Browns Lake Trailhead and wanted to hike 2 miles to Crown Point. However, both Maya and Aden did not feel well. I think it may have been altitude related as they both had ear issues. In fact - yesterday evening Aden had severe ear pain and had trouble sleeping until we went out and got him some better medicine. Maya was fine when we got home but on past camping trips she has complained of not feeling well. Oh well... guess we'll move to Florida.

On the drive up we noticed a small wisp of smoke south of the canyon. On the drive down a massive cloud of smoke could be seen. For a few miles on the way down the sky was orange.

Last Day of School

Yeah our dining room light is super pink...

Fox

Hanging out in neighbor's backyard driving many dogs insane.
