this last two weeks We went to see Veralyn graduate, followed by a brief trip to yellowstone. we camped a night in yellowstone and then went back home to Oregon. We followed up yellowstone with a family rafting venture. I got to "ride the bull" on the convergence rapids at the end. It was my favorite part. You sit on the front of the raft with both legs over the front and you hold onto the rope like a bullrider. It was so cool. Patrick had an exciting trip too, he spent a little unintended time outside the raft.
After rafting we mostly just chilled at home. Although without A/C, chilled would be the wrong term. Speaking of A/C - my downstairs neighbors, who must have been part polar bear, have kept it so cold (they control a/c for both apartments) that I've used an electric blanket at night and have always had to use slippers and wrap up in an afghan in my living room. Well, they moved while I was away and when I got in at 2:30am, the chilly atmosphere was also gone. It was actually warmer inside than outside. In fact, it was about the temperature of our house in Oregon, which was not what I was wanting to walk into. I wont miss their constantly crying kid, but really, I didn't mind their choice in temperature all that much. I'd rather have it colder than hot. The landlord should be around soon - I'll have to bring up the new thermostat setting.

The slideshow is cool!
Sorry about the homesickness, I guess the Lord has His way of telling you it is time to move on :)
