Davis, Liz, Abby, and Hank Holland have been here visiting with us for a couple of weeks now. Davis came first and participated in the "Masters Swim Competition" at Mt Hood Community College and we enjoyed throughly watching him race and swim!
Last Tuesday Liz and the kids came in and the family took off for Crater Lake, the Lava Tubes near Bend and finally back to Mt. Hood to stay at the famous Timberline Lodge. :) Today Paul and the kids met up with the Hollands and they enjoyed a day of hiking around the gorge water falls and playing together. I stayed home alone, and had a quite day catching up on laundry, dishes, "Ellen", as well as some needed rest. It was very nice having the day to myself in my house!
The pictures below are for your entertainment. Hope you enjoy them! I will write more later, maybe even more tonight if I can hang in there--I am sooooo sleepy!

Great memories!!!
