Cabin Weekend

It's beautiful in the mountains this time of year, but then, it's beautiful any time of year.  This is just a different kind of beautiful.  A yellow and orange kind of beautiful.  You really have to be there . . .
I love that in any given picture, there are colorful fall leaves in the background.  Kids running and playing and having so much fun.  This is what makes a Gramma happy.
Capri chased this ball all over the place, laughing and running, falling down and jumping right back up again.  See how dirty the front of her coat is?  It 's from all the falling down :)
We backed the trailer up to one of the huge piles of wood the forest service fire crews so kindly left when they saved our cabin from becoming another burning pile of ash, and we piled the wood high, and then took it on over to the fire pit.

And then, with everyone's help,  we built the biggest camp fire in the world!
The cows were gone, so these corrals became the BEST playground.






I tried to get these cute boys to turn around for a rustic western picture, but they were WAY to into the yucky water in the watering trough.

The mountains are good therapy.  Rest, relaxation, forgetting about life, breathing in the fresh air.  Colorful leaves everywhere you look.  Ahhhhh!

 

Not to mention the making of many happy memories :)
