Too hot...too cute summer days!

Camping with the Groundart Trio

This has been a difficult/exhilarating and hot week!!  But very fun.  Katie and I took Fran out on her first camping exploration to Lake Pillsbury in the beautiful Mendocino Natnl. Forest.  It was challenging but sooo super rewarding!  Fran experienced many firsts' and loved being outdoors all day long!  To slightly complicate our arrival...we made it to our destination...aka love-bar-point via kayak and canoe.  What a treat!  Here are a few photos of our journey.  Enjoy.  The last one in transport home was a clear...."Why are we going home?"

Everyday activities...

Some fun times are going down around here.  Although Frances has her difficult moments....she loves getting outside.  Here are a couple pics of us getting ready for a ride around town on another beautiful afternoon.  There is a link on the left to see more of what is going on with Yuba Bikes.  I think they are about the best thing on earth next to my family and the tools I use to ride waves in the ocean.

Fran says:  "Dada...bike?"

Papa says:  "Yeah you wanna go on a bike ride?"

Fran responds:  "Si"
