Young buck

My aunt said when we moved here that we would grow to hate the derr, but I don't feel like I do yet even though they do like to munch on all things green. I watched this spike eat our tree for awhile until Daru scared him away.

Hiking the M


The University of Montana is the only college with a mountain on campus so they put a big concrete M in the middle of it, you can hike to it and then buy a t-shirt that says "I hiked the M" though I suppose they would not prevent you from buying the t-shirt even if you didn't hike it. Last summer, some kids had started a fire near the M so we couldn't hike it because the trail was closed, so we finally had this experience this year. Here you see part of the M and part of Missoula.

The Pinata

We tried in vain to break the pinata with a frisbee but ended up resorting to the field hockey stick method.

See we were there!


Doug and I were a little underdressed for the event...

Where did May go?

We had a crazy busy May with lots of travel adventures and family activities and fun. In the middle of May we headed for Rebekah's graduation with a PhD in mathematics. While our airline adventures (don't travel with us!) did not allow us to actually make it to the graduation, we arrived right after it was over and recreated it to simulate the experience minus the speakers and all the other graduates.
