August 14 - 16 Hello McCall!

After Spokane, we headed to McCall to see Cathy and Donnie. We were greeted with a wonderful tri-tip bbq and Luna had green beans for the first time. Looks like she approved. Uncle Donnie also cut up some grapes and she wolfed those down.




Aunt Cathy rocked Luna to sleep.


We had LOTS of furry guests while we were there.




On Saturday we hiked up to Lake Josephine in the Payette National Forest.


There was a fire in the mid 90's and mother nature is gradually re-greening the area. It was lovely.

"Oma, thanks for this great new outfit. I love it!"




Back in the car and ready to head home.


But first we had to check out Burgdorf Hot Springs.



This cat had definitely seen better days. It was still breathing though.



We got a great deal on an "up and coming" vacation property.


Sunday morning...ready to say good-bye. :-( Thanks for taking such good care of us Cathy and Donnie. We love you.


Luna is reading her books on her own a lot now. So fun to watch.



We stopped at Central Washington University in Ellensburg for a bite to eat and for some play time. It was a long drive home and Luna was being a trooper, as usual. Raisins are a new favorite.



Organic "O's" are still number one.




Back in the car and ready to head home. Nothing like some Hop On Pop to make a long car ride seem shorter.


It's been a great summer. All told, Luna visited 9 states and traveled almost 5,700 miles! She lived out of a backpack for 30 days, and she did it all in her fantastic Luna way. We are very, VERY lucky to have you little one.
