Halloween Read

“It is a truth universally acknowledged that a zombie in possession of brains must be in want of more brains.”

75% Jane Austen (yes, her actual words) and 30% zombie mayhem. Romantic, hilarious and slightly gruesome. Read it for Halloween!

Deer Hunt

After we got home, I realized we had no pictures of the actual hunters! Curt, Kevin, Krysta, Erin and Grandpa got up in the wee early hours to comb the hills. Camille, Rachel, and I stayed in our warm cozy sleeping bags until the sun came up and then had this marvelous breakfast. We made the hunters the same breakfast when they returned several hours later. Wait, I've never taken pictures of my food before! Other family members' blogs (you know who you are!) are rubbing off on me!

We enjoyed our campsite--running water, flush toilets, paved road--we are going soft! Just down the road was the Fremont Indian Musuem with a fun kids area and several hikes to see rock art.

Curt and crew saw only a few small deer and one nice bull elk, but proof that the area was once full of animals was on the rock walls.

It was a short camp, but fun.

Twin Peaks Hike

Who are those mountain goats?

It's just a bunch of Grafs!

Kolby and Kevin rejoice at reaching the summit.

The whole crew on the top.

They came home in the dark with one sick child and only 2 flashlights. Curt ended up with a deep gash on his arm that required waking up our neighbor who is an emergency room doctor, and another doctor visit the next day with powerful antibiotics and a tetanus shot.  All in all, another memorable Graf hike that they would all do again. Maybe. Not.
