The Last Bits of Summer.....


Mike spent the last days of summer on a 50 mile hike with the scouts. He had a lot of fun and ended up carrying another kid's pack for a good part of the hike, in addition to his own pack. The other kid hurt his ankle. If you look closely here, you can see Mike sandwiched in between a pack on his back and a pack on his front :-) It builds character (and big muscles).....







































Brit spent the last few days of summer learning how to use Brad's sewing machine (vintage 1945-ish). Brad showed Brit how to sew a tote bag, to start with and next week she'll start using patterns :-) Perhaps it's time to invest in a newer sewing machine (ha!)


Dan spent the last few hot (80 degree) days of summer out blasting bugs with his mega-squirt gun :-)
