 THIS IS THE VERY OLD LODGE AT "OLD FAITHFUL"

CENTER AS OF TWO YEARS.
 
 WAITING FOR OLD FAITHFUL TO BEGIN IT'S MAGIC

 OPAL POOL
 TURQUOISE POOL

 LOOK CLOSE AND YOU CAN SEE A COYOTE LOOKING FOR HIS MEAL
 WE HAD LUNCH AT THE LAKE LODGE, IT IS A GREAT LODGE

 PAPA JOHN WAS A GOOD SPORT ABOUT TAKING THE GRAND KIDS OUT FISHING, ESPECIALLY WHEN THERE WAS ONLY ONE WHO KNEW HOW TO FISH.
IT WAS A LITTLE STRESSFUL AT TIMES!



 



 

 TAYLER WAS THE PRO THIS DAY.....SHE GOES WITH HER DAD ALL THE TIME
  STRIDER WAS THE CATCH OF THE DAY

 BACK AT CAMP AT THE END OF THE DAY
