OK here a closer look at my squash tree. I have about 4 hubbard squash in this tree and the vine go all around the tree. Pretty cool looking.

I'm looking out the window and see a deer in our back yard. Ron grab's the b.b. gun and shots the deer 3 times before he runs off. ONLY to return 15 min later. Duncan was kind enough to give chase...... We've put deer netting over the pumpkins and around tomatoes and beans. So far so good. We Just Might be able to enjoy some fresh veggies. I have peas, beans, beets, and cukes just to name a few that we've enjoyed. I also have onions, raspberries, and squash. YUM

Life is good.

I'm finding it Hard to believe July is about over with. Where has the time gone.

We had a wonderful time in Yellowstone. If you haven't been. Plan a trip there. Lots to see and do.

We did it ALL. and seen Lots of Animals. Well No BEAR.... Ron and Jappy saw one FAR FAR AWAY but no picture of him...

Ron and I tried our luck at fishing. Not a bite. Talk with Other Fishing guys and they had no luck either. BUT while we were fishing we had a deer run by us. And maybe 10 mins later a guy is yelling that Wolves took down a deer. I dropped my pole and headed for the road with camera in hand. Ron is picking up the poles and following. Ron see them first, They are on the run.... and Some lady steps right in front of my filming.... BUT I got to see them. Pretty cool.

We saw Lots of Buffaloes. And let's say up close and personnel . We were hiking on this one trail and as we rounded the corner , here was a herd. Bulls, babies, and cow's. Just a little to close . Let's hurry to the bridge....... then take pictures. Pretty exciting. And we got some Great shots.

Every day there was a Buffalo jam..... They were stopping traffic.

We saw Elk, deer, wolves, buffalo, and More buffalo and More buffalo.

It was fun sharing it with our Grandkids. Got lots of pictures..... Hope we can do it again. Oh Ya.... we enjoy spending time with Jenny and Jappy too.

We ate very well. No Weight lost on this trip either. Course with all the hiking I didn't gain either.

We had a lightning and thunder storm a few days ago. And I was enjoying until the next morning. I forgot what wind will do to corn. It took it down. All my hard work.. and in just a few minutes......So we spent the evening standing it back up. It Was about 7 feet tall.....

Ron is helping me stand the corn back up. Let's hope it stay's up.... Need 5 weeks.......
We had a surprise in the garden. This is a Hubbard squash, and growing on our Tree.. Just too funny. There's squash nested on the branches. Let's see if the Deer can get these.....
Here's my corn.... One should Not be prideful, cause the weather is in charge.
Our Animals were playful. I think they missed us. Just give Duncan a ball and he's a Happy camper.
Jack found a stick in the deck... and was having fun playing with it.

Getting ready to leave..... Duncan isn't very happy. He's under the trailer.Jay enjoyed his Lunch....... What a messy boy he was!

I want to go back and find pictures of my kids at old faithful. with Ron's Folks... and now we have pictures of our grandkids at the same place.... How cool is that.THIS is a Bison......But better known as BUFFALOE We saw LOTS. up close TOO ... every day. EXCEPT the day we left the park. Any time we saw brake lights........ Buffalo on the road.
Jay was happy if he had a stick in hand... and rocks in the mouth... LOVED playing in the dirt.
We enjoyed some BBQ Ribs for dinner. Mady was enjoying her RIBS any BBQ Ribs in the mouth???
Jay's LOVED the wind in his face. He was the happiest climbing. Just like his Uncle Ronny...

We had to enjoy Ice Cream every day.... CAUSE... That's what you do when you go to Yellowstone. That what Mady said. Thanks Mady for that information.I kept asking Jenny when Old Faithful was to go off..... And she kept saying 5.... I have proof..... and SHE WAS WRONG!!!!!! 4 35 good thing I didn't listen to HER.... Thanks Jappy for the right time.

Here's how we grow Cucumbers in North Idaho. They were 11 inches long and about 3 inches wide. So you can see the size next to my brownie's box. The deer got into my tomatoes and when I was looking to see how much they ATE. alot I found these 2 cukes. We had 3/4 of one for dinner tonight. YUM I also enjoy beets that the deer pulled up. They didn't like them. But enjoy the tops.
