Earl Grey

You may remember our adopted cat, Earl, who kept returning to his original neighborhood after his people moved across town. Our friends living in that neighborhood took him in until they move out of town. That’s when, in 2006, we took him with the hope of breaking his homing instinct. Since then he has become more comfortable with us, Lido (our 90lb. Lab.) and his new life as an indoor cat. He even survived our latest move into town without too much trauma. Sadly, Jolyn noticed a tumor in Earl’s mouth earlier this year.  Without much hope of curing the oral fibrosarcomas, we said goodbye to a good cat. This Christmas we’ll miss his eyes peering out from under the tree.

Hannah's Happenings

Hannah has had loads of fun this past year. Her favorite summer camp was over-night at Camp Harlow where she slept in a cabin with her school buddy, Madeline. She is in 4 th grade this year and is having fun in math with fractions, long division, and common factors. Hannah just finished playing KidSports volleyball with her class mates. She is very excited about Christmas with her Aunts - Judy and Sally, and with Grandma and Grandpa, and “Uncle” Tim (Jolyn's cousin) who she hasn't seen in a very long time.

The Crux of the Matter

Once again Trevor and Hannah spent a week at Crux Rock Gym . It's one of their favorite summer camps. They improve each year and find the confidence and skill to accomplish even more than in past years. There's basic climbing, boldering and belaying, the high, balance beam (forwards, backwards and (or) eyes closed), the King Swing and one day climbing the basalt columns of Skinner Butte . Mike always enjoys watching the kids try different routes on a sunny summer day.
