I've had a great time with family as well as friends this summer. My Auntie Carolyn and Uncle Chris came down to Robin and Doug's in early July, and we had a great time enjoying each others company, some wonderful food, and a bit of hiking in the hills. We hiked up to Cougar Ridge, which has a really great view of the mountains across the valley. It is called Cougar Ridge because there was a cougar found there once. We've seen a couple cougars around both camps. That's pretty scary because cougars actually will stock humans. I don't even want to think about it when I have to walk in the dark to the outhouse at night. It's especially scary when there's no moon and the night is pitch black! One consolation is looking up at the incredibly bright stars, and reminding myself that I have a relationship with the Creator of the entire universe, and my life is in His hands. I am learning to trust Him more each day.
So our family times have been great. I love it that Bjorn is my cousin now. I keep deliberately calling him my cousin just to remind myself how true it is! Bjorn and Al are such a wonderful couple. Thank you God for the precious gift of family in my life! We always have such a great time together!
