THE 2007 STRAWBERRY DAYS GRAND MARSHALL!On June 23rd, Maureen and I jumped in the car and drove to Pleasant Grove to see Mom and Dad ride in the parade as Grand Marshall. It was really great. We met Stan, Holly and their kids on 200 South to watch. It looks like the lady was as excited to take my picture as I was taking Mom and Dad. Dad said he needed a little more leg room in that rumble seat.
EDEN GETTING READY TO "JUMP"Our trip to ABQ was alot of fun. We went down 7-13 thru 7-17 to help Dane and Emily and Eden with some house projects. We worked in their yard getting ready to lay Flagstone, put in a sink and fixtures in their bathroom, and Maureen and Emily sewed curtains for thier windows.
SEW LIKE THE WIND!!!
Flagstone already layed by DaneHIKE TO CAPE FINAL, NORTH RIM OF THE GRAND CANYON
JULY 4, 2007
Maureen and I on the 3rd and 4th went out to the North Rim. On Tuesday the 3rd we drove out to Kanab in the afternoon and visited the Visitors Center. I had no idea there were so many movies made out there.....There were over 200 made in the hayday. We had dinner then drove up to Jacob's Lake and stayed in a cabin. The next morning we drove out to the North Rim and did the Cape Final Hike....again something we had never done before. Here is Maureen resting in her normal resting position. I think that Cape Final was the best views We have ever seen of the Grand Canyon, we could see all the way up to Lee's Ferry and the Vermillion Cliffs to the north and all the way around the elbow of the canyon to the South Rim. It was really great...too bad Maureen missed it looking into the orange bandana!!

You guys are very adventuresome. I'll bet Emily enjoyed the visit and help.
I did enjoy the visit and help! Thanks again for coming down to slave away! And it's fun to see the other pictures. The Strawberry Days Parade better think about a more comfortable ride for their most important participants, though!! :o) Hugs!
