My Adventure! Part 1

Greetings from the state of Kentucky!
On Oct 2nd mom, Megs and I started off on our 3 day straight through trip to Ky.

We had a packed full car as we were taking a goat to KY with us to be picked up by his new owner and taken to VA.
Packed and ready!

Here are some pictures of our 3 day Trip to Ky.
Good Morning Utah!
Cool rock formation in UT
Welcome to WY! Visited a rest stop/visitor center
Look out! ;)
Nothing upon nothing for miles and miles in WY
Starting to get hills (WY)
Yup, looooooonnnnnngggggggg way!
The east of WY is more fun to site see. :)

Ok, next post will be our creation Museum visit. :)

Hope y'all are doing well, and keeping warmer than we are out here in chilly morning KY.

Keep fighting for Jesus the King of Forever!

What I've been up to...


Hmm... Looks like I have neglected my blog for over a month.... Sorry about that.
I do have a good excuse! Several actually, though I know excuses are..
um...  poor and inadiquite. (heh, I looked that meaning up.) 😀

So in August we have several things happen!

  1. My sister Megs and I applied and were accepted for a season position at the Ark Encounter in KY! It's cool! Go check it out! 
  2. Our grandparents are moving up to live with us from CA. So we've been preping their house and getting everything ready for them. They will be here THIS WEEKEND!!! 😮😁
  3. Finally getting the last of our fencing up so the yard is fully enclosed for our doggies so they can't run up to the road.
  4. We've been busy preping things so I'm all caught up on getting the critters ready for winter BEFORE I  leave for KY! Man, there is so much to do!

And this past Saturday the biggest event at the Fort, Campfires & Candlelight happened!
It was great! I was in the WWI camp again, 5th year in a row. (can't tell I like it or anything can you?) 😉
Here are some pictures I found on the Fort website as I didn't take any myself.

WWI Doughboys! :D
 It was lots of fun and we didn't get rained on this year which was great!

Ok, back to work,I've taken a long enough break. 😊

Camping!!

Two weeks ago we went camping for the first time in 10 years!!! 😮😆

It was a BLAST!!! Only complaint... to. many. bugs... mostly the gnats. 😒
But we got to go hiking, agate and crystal hunting in the creeks,
dry beds and the liquid ice filled ones. BRRRR! was it cold!

But we went with some family friends and everyone had fun.
Here are some pictures from our adventure! 😄












It was a great few days!

Beach!!


I LOVE the beach!!!😎
This year, for my dad's birthday, some friends and us went to the Bow Picker for fish n' chips, then went up to the Astoria Column to eat them and show them the column as they've never been there before!
Then we all went to the shipwreck at the Fort Stevens beach.
So much fun!
Here are some pictures from our exchersion.😄




It was a great day!! 😄

Fun Times!


June 30th we went to the Ape Cave with friends.
SO much fun! We hiked 10 miles altogether that day, I got 25,439 steps! 
We also went to Lava Canyon, and since it was the last day of June why not stop at June Lake?



Lava Canyon

June Lake!





On the 4th we went to help our church in the Ridgefield Day Parade.
Loads of fun and I even made it into the Columbian!

That evening we went with friends to volunteer at Fort Vancouver and then stayed and watch the fireworks afterwards. SO AMAZING!!! Love Fireworks! 😊

A few months ago my computer had a glitch and I lost all my old emails and contacts.
Mrs. A. I have lost your email and want to send you some pictures.

Hope your all having a great start to your summer!

Summer!


Happy first day of summer!!😎😎
Though I think the weather got a little confused....yesterday felt more like summer than today!
Yesterday it was 69 degrees already at 9am! Today? Cloudy and I think maybe 70 at 11am.... 😕


Been super busy the last few weeks. Working at my at home job, helping mom out with hers, taking care of goats and the other critters in the hot weather.
My sister Kai got Hand Foot and Mouth virus from the fort the last time we went, so she's been "quarantined" for the past 2 1/2 weeks. But she's finally about 98% better! Her hands are a bit red still from where the spots were, but except for that, you'd never know she was sick!

A friend and I are starting a Mini Dairy Goat club for the Pacific Northwest! There isn't one at the moment, and folks in this part of the country are wanting to have some live shows to take their goats to but you need to have a club sponsor the show, so....
I called my friend and said "you wanna start a mini dairy goat club?" and she said "sure!".... so!
We are only in our 2nd week of getting this going. Lots of planning and setting up.
We got our FB page up, working on a website now.... so we're moving along!
You can look us up in you want! Pacific Northwest Mini Dairy Goat Club. 😊

I created a logo for our group! What do you think? :)

I've also got the V-show coming up, the online goat show I'm in charge of putting together.
So the next few weeks will be SUPER busy for me! 😊


How'd your spring go? Ours went pretty well.
Hoping for a nice long slow summer!! 😎
