A bit of fun on video...

More Lake Adventures

Sadly, Coco, Nate, and Viv had to head off to a wedding, but we had no trouble keeping ourselves occupied on our last days at the lake.

 Pop rented a boat and Maya was happy to take the helm on a nice afternoon cruise.

Jogging and Hiking

Todd had to leave early to go back to work, but we had fun in the last 24 hours with him...

 Mom and Dad jogging which involved a lot of walking because Mom was involved.

A trail perfect for pregnant chicks...

Dexter's artistry comes through in one of his first recognizable smiley faces.

Family photos...

On the rare occasion of having the whole family together, we decided photos were in order...

At the beach area there is a redwood with a filled in trunk.  Vivian doesn't approve.

You never know what you'll find in a redwood forest.
