Okay, just like that, it's July. So a little bit of catch up for June. We had a family CES activity at Steadman Ranch, outside of Pocatello. It's really just someone's back yard, but it has a couple of cool slip n slides and a zip line with some picnic shelters. The little kids had fun on the slip n slides. I went down once, and then kind of vegged because I was feeling sick--have a nasty head cold.
We've also spent some time babysitting Ryker, McKenzie's little boy. Here he is as Batman.
We had a little get together for my dad's birthday. Kristi hosted it at her house and we had dinner and played outside.
I've been wanting to try out the bike trail at the Blackfoot Reservoir for a long time, so, Kory and I figured out how to hitch up our bike rack and took Morgan on a little adventure. Had to grab some slices of pie from the Homestead to finish it off.
Kory and I had some free time, so we took a trip to Star Valley and had a fun adventure. Kory's old boss grew up in Star Valley, so we asked him for some suggestions about places to eat and hike, etc. We started out by eating at Tootsie's. Nice sandwiches, soup, and pie.
Then, we tracked down Intermittent Springs. This is a really unusual (only three in the world) spring, which basically shuts off every 18 minutes or so. Right now, the water table is really high, so it didn't shut off, but it was a short, pretty hike, and fun to check it out.
After that, we found the Star Valley temple. It looks like it will be ready for the open house soon.
We headed home by way of Freedom, WY and Soda Springs, ID. It was an interesting drive. Never seen that area before.
When we got home, we ate something, went for a bike ride, and then joined our neighbors for their yearly Driveway of Fire!

Sounds like a fun June, and I couldn't agree more about summer cruisin' by!
