Pack Trip

Tyler, 2 of his cousins, and I set out for Bomber Mountain. We did not make our original destination but rather stopped in the Mistymoon area. Scroll through the many pics below to see some of the views we saw. Also here are a couple of links you can look at to learn more about the B-17 that crashed.

Home again, home again for 2 of us...James & Jon still had to drive to Idaho!

Looks like you all had a wonderful time, and you can't beat the beauty all around you. I am so glad you shared it with us.
It was so good to see you all at the dance. Miss you.
