"Farewell Bend"

We just got back from
Verne's family reunion, and
we had a great time. We
stopped first at "Zion's camp",
where we had Trek, so Verne
could get a garbage can we
left there. It really came in
handy when we picked up ice
and watermellons from Hermiston
that we shared with the FAM. The
can was big enough for lots of ice
and lots of mellons. Baylor got to
stretch his legs and run around.

We arrived in camp and set up our
tents. Logan and family came with
us and got a chance to us their new
tent.

Three words, besides fun, to discribe
the weekend...
HOT, HOT, HOT.

It's nice to come home to a beautiful
cool day, and see that the Hill's and Baldwin's did
a great job of weeding the garden. Thanx!!!















We had a great time thanks to Perry and Patty!!
They were awesome and planned for a great time.









The weather was a little hot!!! we pitched the tents by a tree and got some shade. The brothers and sisters of Ila and Porter were all at the reunion and some of their kids and grandkids also.





































we talked shop, we ate lots of food, laughed, and played games.
Santa Claus made an off season
appearance. HO, HO, HO,
































Boy the weekend really made me tired.
Can you count all my mosquito bites?

Baylor had a ball playing with all the kids,
and sleeping in his new tent.

There were 56 people this year who were able to attend.

See you next year when we are planning the reunion and maybe have even more come!!

"We are a happy family"
