Day at the Cabin

We had some technical difficulties so this entry is airing 10 days after the fact.
On August 31st, Me and Chandler went up to the annual Fort Bridger Mountain Man Rendezvous. My parents took Erika and I there as children and now we are taking our kiddos. We met Dad, Sheri, Erika, Brandon, Chase, Shilo and Aubrey. I carried my little person in one of those front carrier packs for babies. It took three people to get him in and out. I think Erika got a picture so check her blog at the first of September. After the Rendezvous we went back to Dad's cabin to stay the night which turned out to be a bad idea as Chandler decided to not sleep and opted to party all night instead. We did, as always, have a wonderful dinner and ate way to much. The kids passed out on the floor, and me and Chandler, awake at 5:00am, left for home as I had a flight to catch to L.A. (see the previous blog) It was a short trip to the cabin but a good trip.
We have been going up to the cabin for years now, ever since I had to putt up there in my old Land Cruiser some 13 years ago. First when it was just a mound of land and we had to sleep in an old musty trailer to seeing the cabin turn into the home it is today. We have had good times from sleep overs, movie nights, food, food, more food, snowmobiling, cross country skiing, walks, hikes, Christmas, friends wrecking Dad's snowmobile, doggie swims, shrimp dip, four wheeling, marshmellow fires, rapping (it's like kareoke but you rap when given to the talking spick), summer parties, I have brought many boyfrineds there, funny though, I have never brought the same guy twice. I love going to the cabin and hope Chandler does as well for years to come.



Is that an 11 gallon hat?
