it was a pictureless July 4th for some reason?? we never even made our way to see fireworks! what kind of people are we? i do have these that i happen to get of jackson under complete duress
he was a bit squinty
we did however, have a great 4th...it was very relaxing...ate some yummy ribs, made homemade ice cream and played wii
on sunday, we headed north
remember the cabin that my parents were interested in buying? well, unfortunately they didn't get that particular one (and we're over it now) but there was a back up l-i-s-t with plenty of options for us to see
we made a day of it
one of the neighborhoods that my parents had previously looked at has this huge river where jackson could play
this is mr bruno and his wife ann that met up with us for the day...my mom and dad met them last year at the transplant clinic, he is currently undergoing treatment for AML
the covered bridge at the entrance
the water was COLD
it was alot of fun and the river was absolutely beautiful
look what else we saw...
this guy and gal came right up to the house we were looking at! nothing like a salt block and a bit of corn to help out...but they were not afraid of us at all!
i took these very slowly and carefully with my 50mm and i was literally about 20 feet away!
you see all of the trees around? that would bring me to the chiggers, but let's not go there...this post is quite long enough, don't ya think?
no big decisions were made in the making of these photos...so i think we're going back soon!
