We had a great trip to Moab the last 5 days or so. The Elcock clan all met up. Ali wasn’t able to make it. Something about maintaining a 4.0 GPA. Something I clearly cannot understand (the 4.0 part, that is). There was golf, food, near-death experiences on the river, hiking, food, talking with geese, video games, pictures, waking Gwenyth up at 10, and food. It was great.
On the way home, it actually snowed over Soldier Summit. And then by the time we got home the temperature was in the 40s. Yikes! Apparently the day prior it was almost 90. Quite a swing, I’d say.
We have lots of pictures and movies to sort through. We’ll be posting many of them. If those of you fortunate enough to be there have some cool pictures or video you want on the DVD we’re going to make, send them our way. My gmail email address can handle pretty large attachments. If you don’t know what that means, you probably don’t have anything I want.
Now for the move . . .
Suzi & everyone,
I’m hoping for some of those cool scooter pictures you got. And to everyone else–send on any great pictures or footage you have. Does anyone have any footage of the paddle boat vertical and then upside down on skull? Wasn’t that interesting! Thanks again to Grandpa & Grandma Elcock for FINANCING the amazing trip!! Thanks to Suzi & Mike for good food, arranging the rafting trip, hike, park, and letting the girls stay one LONG LONG night (I’m sure). Thanks to Charlene & Krisanne for really making the rafting trip possible by taking all the kiddos–Kuddos! Aaron & Jana, the shirts are great and are a new favorite at our house. If you haven’t gotten word–we are all responsible to pay for our own shirts. They ran $8 a shirt. You do the math and money goes to Sean or Jana. Speaking of Jana, thanks for organizing and planning events and details! I think everyone had a great time!
Thanks to everyone for a great time. It is always great to see all of you guys together and it always makes the trip for us to be associated with you all. Thanks again and lots of love to all!!!!!!!!
Grandma and Grandpa
Thank you all for coming to Moab. At least now you know where it is. We loved having you here and spending some time with you. Wish Alison could have been with us – especially on the river! Steve and Charlene know how to raise children and they know how to produce children that each have looks and personality that will be sure to break someone’s heart. Enjoyed spending time with my adopted grandchildren.
Thank you all again for coming. It made my summer.
Love,
Susi (&Mikey, yes he has recovered)
Julie,
I will save the scooter pics but need to know how to download.
Hey bro when are the pics goin up?
We just got internet access again today, so hopefully something will be coming soon. Susi, you can just email them to me if you want. Do you know how to get them off of your camera?
Did you show me? NO! I only know that which I learn from you, oh great computer WIZ. How do I get them on my computer? Is that the hook up the usb cable and plug in the memory thing? Any new photo booth pics?
