Enjoying Nature

For the majority of the past two decades the Wheeler family has enjoyed spending time in the Mountains. The family cabin is located in High Sierra Park (formerly Odd Fellows Park) between Sierra Village and Long Barn, California. It is a beautiful place with a meadow and lake surrounded by huge pine trees. The baby has been to the gardens and to many backyards but this was his first experience with NATURE on the large scale. I think he liked it, at least the dry parts of it. Here are some pictures of our trip.33 People and 2 Bathrooms-
Dad Wheeler thought the math didn't work, so he called in some help.The Kids needed some outside time on Friday afternoon so we went down to the lake. The plan was to stay dry, the plan failed.We tried hard to keep the baby in the shade.On Saturday we had a service project, we picked up trash around the park.
The baby Helped.
Boys play interesting, long, drawn out games where they get to kill each other All the grandkids enjoyed DDR, I learned that you don't even need a mat to play as the two kids behind the ddr mats can testify

Our first time in the water at the Lake was on Saturday, it was pretty warm and the baby liked to look at the water as I walked through it, but he didn't really enjoy being placed in the water.


Sometimes you have to kiss alot of frogs (or Toads) before you find the right one, J is starting early.
