We enjoyed seeing relatives and friends at the River Romp the 7th of August. Ron's kids and grandkids were there in numbers to cook breakfast Saturday morning. We sure enjoyed them all. The breakfast was wonderful too.

The Beautiful bench was made by Rolf Kahn and a friend from the original sign that was posted in the 1970's for the Ranch - and lost for years in the barn. Rolf resqued it and helped design this amazing bench made of Cedar,Oak (arm rests) Alder milled from Rolfs property on the seat and Cherry wood makes up the frame.

The back of the bench uses horse harness yoke and hardware to write UK

Pet, Ulf and Ron enjoy the meal!

Ron had cataract surgery on Monday Aug. 9th and now he has 20-20 vision again!! We are so happy. His heart is doing well and he is on a new med for diabetes that is working better.
We are getting excited about our 3 week vacation and trip to Idaho, Montana, Wyoming – and going to my Class Reunion.

I have put together a 20 minute video using computer technology that Tim has taught me. I am now waiting until the 25th to see if any more classmate pictures come in – and after that I am laying in the sound track and voice over and then I have to burn 32 DVD's. I have the labels all made and I think it will be a fun presentation.

I have used the computer to find campsites to use along the way on our trip to Idaho Falls. We will tent camp at Wolf Creek Reservoir in Oregon near LeGrande and then near Burley Idaho or the Twin Falls Reservoir in Idaho before we come to Idaho Falls.

On the 8th of Sept we will travel to Old Faithful Inn for the night and for dinner and then we will tour Yellowstone Park. We plan to exit the South going through the Teton's and
will travel to Swan Valley Idaho for more camping. Hopefully Ron can catch some fish to take back to my Brother Bob and his wife Barbara where we will stay for the rest of our trip.

All this should make for a good blog when I get back.


Greetings to all. Love you!
