August 1st, 2008: The Michigan Crew Visits Wyo!

Scott's Mom and Dad, and Sister and family visited during the last week of July and here are a few pictures from the week. Of course, the driveway hockey started shortly after their arrival!

Sunday, we all took in a Behind the Chutes tour on the last day of Cheyenne Frontier Days. Then we spent the afternoon watching the CFD Finals Rodeo which was pretty cool.

Having the entire family together, we definitely had to try to get some family pictures. Below was one of the better attempts.

On Monday, the family headed for Estes Park, Colorado and Rocky Mountain National Park. After catching the shuttle bus up to Bear Lake Trailhead, we headed up to Dream Lake. All of the low-landers and especially the children did great on the hike that ended in rain and an approaching thunderstorm.

Another family picture, along the trail.

And we stopped at our "regular rock" along Dream Lake for our picnic lunch. Several nice folks on the trail stopped to snap a photo of us. Here is the best of the bunch.


It was plenty hot during the visit, so here are the cousins at the spray park at the Municipal Pool here in Cheyenne.
