Family Time

Location: Uncle Bug's House, Nine Falls, WA

We left Idaho and headed to just north of Spokane to visit my Uncle "Bug", and cousins Cary and Lisa. Sure was good to connect with them!

 

 

Uncle Bud moved into this place about 3 months ago. Amazing what he's done in that short period of time. The place looks great. There are some loaded cherry trees in his backyard. Yep, munched cherries right off the tree. Yum!

 

Ned testing the grapes. Not quite ready for wine making yet. (Uncle Bug did mention that we have the barrel to make it in!)

 

 

Cary and Lisa moved in with Bud last night. Yes, we are THOSE relatives that show up on the next day when all the work is done and everyone is exhausted. Lisa's so sweet and welcomed us anyway.

 

 

Ned and Bud talking about tractors and stuff. Mr. G. you were really missed today. Would have loved to have you giving your 2 cents.

 

 

Hanging out on the back porch getting caught up over boysenberry pie and ice cream.

 

 

Here's Ned earlier in the day, scoring the pie at a roadside stand. Fortunately, Uncle Bug had vanilla ice cream in his freezer. Match made in heaven.

 

 

The property is so pretty with sweet little touches around. We're having so much fun, I can't wait for what tomorrow will bring.
