Wonderful Wyoming

It's no secret that we love Wyoming. We were able to spend another wonderful weekend at the cabin. We attempted a hike along Boulder Creek, but were driven away by mosquitoes. They were terrible in the trees and along the water. Surprisingly though, they weren't bad at all at the cabin. It made working on the fence more enjoyable, even though it was still very hard work.

This is Boulder Creek.


This is a flower I saw along the trail. I'm not sure what it is. Mel, I was hoping you could help me with that.
Another question, do male butterflies die after mating? I think that's what happened to this guy. The female laid eggs and took off, but the male just died. Hmm...
Kaia and I spent most of our time around the cabin playing, stoking the fire in the hot tub, cleaning up, etc. Here she is in various moments of discovery.





She LOVED the tractor. Here she is giving Paul and Mike instructions before they went down to work on the fence.

Colin preferred to take the bike down.

Here everyone is down working on the fence. 40 acres is a lot of land. When it's lined with a fence you can really see the distance.

Kaia and I walked down to join everyone. This is the view looking back at the cabin.
