The Cabin Again

We went to the cabin again with Nan this time from July 8-11. Grandma Browning came up on the 9th. We were with her for a few days, then Greg came and Jayne, Roy, and Kallie came on the 10th. We stayed a few more days with Jayne and Roy.
We saw the baby black bears and their mama with Jayne and Roy and Gma. They were right off the side of the road.
This huge elk was right by our picnic area.
My camera was not zooming right so this grizzly bear does not look that close, but he was as close as the black bear. We saw this with Nan and Gma Browning. We sat and watched him for a long time. It was so neat.
We went with Nan to Virginia City and Nevada City. It took about an hour from the cabin. The kids really loved this. They thought the ghost town was the best part of the trip. When Greg came a few days later, they wanted to go to Virginia City again. Here they are panning for gold.

This is my favorite pic. I let all the kids take their own pictures. Jill was taking a shot in a window. I just love how you can see how bad she is holding the camera.
Talk about gross! This is a double-decker outhouse. Need I say more.

You're such a fun mom for your kids. I love how you take them on all these vacations. My favorite is the double decker outhouse, gross! You need to post about your last minute 1/2 marathon dare. ;)
