Our version of church

Dana finds a turtle to rescue where ever we go.


Here is the Cathedral Spires from the road, rather than the hike up behind them. Matti charmed a lot of the bikers coming around the curve at this point.

Daddy and Matti before boarding the train.


At the end of our early morning, actually peaceful, hike behind the cathedral spires.

Daddy feeding Matti her breakfast in the Cathedral Spires. It was hard work for her hiking and climbing all the way. It wears a girl out.

Sylvan Lake and Evan's Plunge

Sylvan Lake

Matti doing a little wading in Sylvan Lake. She is staring at the hundreds and hundreds of Harleys that are on the other side of the lake.


Hiking at Sylvan Lake

We had to go to Evan's Plunge so mommy could redeem herself after 8 unsuccessful tries at going down the big slide when she was 9 years old. She finally went down the slide and didn't require any people to move to the side of the ladder so she could go back down the ladder way instead of the slide way

Our supposed to be Yellowstone vacation which turned into a Black Hills vacation (during Sturgis)

Mommy and Matti in the Wind Cave. It was sucking in that day.

Hanging out at the campground before the rain


We saw just a few bikes. Matti thinks all wildlife makes the same sound as a Harley

One of Steve's hundreds of picturesque shots of Mt. Rushmore

Who needs to look at the monument when feet are so much cooler!

Camping at Blue Mounds

Great Aunt Audrey and Uncle Marlyn

In the Quarry with grandma and grandpa

I'm not sitting on a rock by myself, grandma is holding me up from the back. Sneaky!

Hiking with Daddy!

Grandpa took me for awhile. Daddy and Grandpa were making very funny noises.
