Memorial Day 2008









Here we are again at Charlie & Ruth's place in West By God Virginia! Ralph and his daughters Emylee & Devon, and Devon's friend Bethany came too. It was freezing cold the first night, but the weather warmed up as the weekend progressed, and was darned hot on Monday! On Sunday the kids went on a kayaking/tubing trip down the river by themselves. Lon was a bit leery about there being no adult along, but they had a great time. Ruth and I took a shorter trip on Monday, and although the water was freezing at first, it was refreshing as the sun got hotter. Because we've had so much rain this spring, the water was the highest I've ever seen it there, and going over the rapids was fun, rather than bumpy! Blizzard was absolutely ecstatic at being allowed to run around completely free for 3 whole days, but he never wandered far.

They say "Hi" back! We always have fun there; it's like going to Assateague, but without the sand, ha ha.
