Johnsons' Cabin

 A couple weeks ago Henry helped Kim make cookies for his new primary teacher



Lyza got to try out different musical instruments at school to see if she would like to learn one



She chose clarinet (which is what I first played in band) so it will be fun to see her learn that

One morning I found Henry sitting on the piano bench with a fresh box of Honey Nut Cherrios and I though it was worth a picture


Some beach time




Last week we went out to our friends' cabin an hour and 15 minutes East of CDA. It is right next to a creek and tucked into the trees and hills



This is what it looks like from 1600 feet in the air


It is a very beautiful area






There is a zip line the kids really enjoy


Nixon got to ride this little dirt bike a lot



Playing in the creek is lots of fun



And there are lots of 4 wheelers that are lots of fun




Kim found some time in the hammock with a book


There was also some sitting around on an old church pew and talking


We had a delicious meal together



And some more rides


Kim and I went out together and she loved it ;)




Kim and some friends


I set the camera up over night to take some photos. Here is a star trail photo


I made a video showing the star movement over the night


I was up way too early the next morning so I took a walk with the camera






Good morning Henry


The next day was more of the same








Lyza took me on a 4 wheeler ride










Nixon was on this thing almost the whole time it seems





That afternoon some of us went on a hike to an old growth cedar forest nearby



The trees were really impressive











There was lots of damage from a fire that had gone through at some point







Here is a video of our trip


We hope you have a great week!
