Fact of the Week

Fact of the Week: How long do astronauts stay in quarantine? Apollo 11, 12, and 14 Astronauts from these missions were quarantined for 21 days after returning from the moon, beginning when the lunar lander's hatch closed on July 21, 1969. The quarantine was a precaution in case the astronauts had been exposed to dangerous lunar microorganisms.

Last Boating/Camping Trip of the Year

Over the Labor Day Weekend, we took our last "warm weather" camping trip, i.e. the last time the boats go out. (Don't worry, plenty of time left for the Dunes!) We stayed for four days and three nights. These pics are of just one of the nights. We had a blast!



Here are the kids eating s'mores. Dave and Lisa also brought stuff so we could make "doughboys". Oh yeah, they are good!




Terry and Keesha


Livia likes them too!






Terry kept getting in my way so I took a pic of his butt!



Here are all the kids enjoying delicious diabetes on a stick!






We girls had our cameras at the ready!





I got him to smile!







Tim sorta smiled!





Shane kicken it!



Lisa and I always have to do the self portrait. I don't look so good here, It had been a hot day and I think I got too much sun!



Da gang


































Lisa and Topher started taking funny pictures. I think Lisa told me the next morning she had taken over 350 pictures. Thank goodness for digital cameras!















Then Andrea started getting in on it. It was too funny!
















We always have a blast with you guys! Thanks for the invite. I will have to make sure I invite some of my family next year (you KNOW who you are!)

Red Butte Garden

Wow, what a crazy couple weeks I have had! I have a lot to post, so I will start at the beginning.
I went with Topher's class to Red Butte Garden on September 3rd. That is a really cool place. I want everyone to know that I was only the cinematographer on this trip. All pictures were ordered by my budding director Topher!



















The bees were hard to catch because they moved so fast!












































This is a wasp nest.






Red-tailed Hawk nest.





































































































Rattlesnake hole.














Bat house.



















































































Not quite sure what this is, but I took pictures like I was told!


















































It was so fun! Thanks Topher!
