Like Finding Long Lost Family...

The last week of July, we had some visitors.  Kevin and his family found me via Facebook.  He was restoring an old Fish and Game truck in honor of dad and Conley and wanted the family's permission to do so.  We began talking and discovered that he has 2 boys  - I have 2 boys.  His oldest boy's name is Jake and his youngest, Adam.  My oldest boys name is Jake and my youngest Adam.  They are from Missouri, dad's family was from Missouri.  He loves the Denver Broncos - I love the Denver Broncos.  Needless to say, we discovered we had a lot in common and so in July, they came to visit.  What a wonderful family.

We spent 2 nights in Grandjean and took a side trip to Stanley...

 
 
 
 
 

Kevin's boys are awesome.  They had so much fun with our Adam and they are the most polite kids I've ever met. 
 


Kevin's wife Megan and our Lorry.  Megan is such a sweetheart.
 
 
 A friend Ival hasn't seen in years offered to take us all on a raft trip down the Payette.  Thanks so much Kent, we all had a great time!

Great chronicle, excellent pictures and it was amazing how your two families meshed and enjoyed time together

I LOVE the picture of everyone out shooting, Linda in that gorgeous dress, gun in hand. It is just too precious.

That's a very iconic Idaho mountain vacation, so I think they made a great choice in seeing you instead of the Broncos!
