Ahh that Lake Superior sand!


Today we went to the camp (cabin) and opened it back-up for the summer. I kept thinking about how late it seems to be opening it up but then we looked in the guest book and last year on this same day they had opened it up (it was late then too because of Rose E's birth). Then I just kept thinking about last summer and how much Rose E has changed since then (and Walter too of course). We had a beautiful hot day here today and Lake Superior looked enticing but we didn't go in. I had to laugh because Walter got reacquainted with the toys there as we cleaned and he was playing with a toy car that had a piece come off of it and he said "mama my car died." So dramatic! This morning he wore a shirt that had the United States of America on it and he kept asking me to find where people live on it. First I had to point out where we live, then where his friend Cyrus lives and then where Papa A.J and Grandma lives. Then he said Papa A.J and Grandma live far away. Later some other day we will see them again. Rose E's new words today where "pager" (she asked what Jeff had on his pants and then repeated it) and "lady" for lady bug. I also got a little chuckle out of this little lady at supper. After supper Walter and Jeff went for another ride on the ranger four wheeler (I included a video of them seeing a peacock down below) and I was doing things while she was still eating. Anyway, I turned away for a few seconds and all of her food was gone. I thought how in the world did she eat all of that so fast. Then I looked and she had thrown it all into Walter's chair. Little stinker. A couple of days ago too she started to discover that Chevy would eat her food if she threw it on the floor so it started out to be a little game. Anyway, then I discovered that Chevy had patches of red hair, courtesy of her raspberries.
