The last leg of our trip...or reunions are fun!

Bary met us in SLC and we were able to spend the weekend of the 4th with his family. We had a great time.

We took off for the Williams reunion ready to spread out and relax in the 12000+ square foot castle my sister procured for the event. The digs were awesome. (Thanks C)

Kellogg, Id is known for mining. At our reunion, we were able to tour a gold mine and then pan for gold. (it really was more fun than Bary makes it look :D. He was just trying to stay out of the sun-trying to protect that bald head I guess )

Riding the Gondola


Yes folks... that is snow in July. We rode the longest Gondola in the World in Kellogg, Id  (3.1 miles) and then 2 chair lifts to the top of the mountain. It was beautiful up there and we were lucky enough to find a patch of snow to play in. 


More proof from Wallace, ID


We side tripped to Wallace, Id. Did you know it boasts the center of the universe? Cool.


On our way to VA, we stopped at Mt. Rushmore. It was really cool.

We left Rushmore and hardly stopped on the rest of the journey. We were all ready to be at our new place. We did have some awesome bug splats along the way though...

We're still swimming in boxes, but I'll get some what "we've been up to" pics up soon.
