Grandpa Tom's Visit

Allan's dad came out for a visit, hoping for a baby but instead had many adventures traveling and seeing the country. The weather wasn't all the terrific; rain on and off but we were still able to see many things. Here is Alex and Grandpa but the river in North Fork. Yep, don't know that name. I wasn't a very good tour guide because I don't pay attention to river names. It's a river.


Here we are at the river. We got a ton of pictures and Alex was actually wanting to look at the camera. Lots of hiking and exploring.

Than we went over blind stream. First making sure it wasn't going to be too bumpy. We played in the snow. It was snowing on us once we got to the top. Allan told me that going over blind stream takes us into Rock Creek. Probably bothering Allan and Tom I kept asking if they thought Stillwater dam would be spilling over.

Lucky for me this is what we saw coming over the hills. I was so happy. I think it is a pretty cool thing to watch a dam spill over when they said it never would.

Then we went to Yellowpine campground and played on the bridges. Alex loves throwing anything off the bridge. He is starting to sound like Donovan too. After every throw he would ask "see that" Donovan always says that.

Grandpa brought kites and we were able to fly kites. There is an airplane, dinosaur, and fish. The first two are a little hard to fly for Alex so we brought out the fish one. All kinds of fun. We had a good visit with Grandpa now maybe he will visit more because we showed him many fishing holes.
