Meuller With Mom

Here's one more collage that I made forever ago. I took the kids hiking all by myself up Meuller Canyon near our house. It was fun and beautiful, but a few days later I heard on the news that a biker had a stand off with a cougar in that very canyon! Eeek! I think I'll take the bear spray (ultra-mace) next time I go hiking without Lance-the-mighty-cougar-fighter (at least in his dreams and mine) along with me.

Umbrellas!

Hello! Long time no see! These pictures are from forever ago (although with all the rain we've been getting lately they could have been from last week), but I thought I'd post them anyway since I made this snazzy collage of them!
