Family Reunion Trip, Day 24

OK, I'm a day behind on the blog, but more important stuff has been happening...like FISHING!
Shannon and I went fishing and hiking to Bass Creek and hiked up to the beaver pond. Had a nice hike, but no fish. The forest and views were really spectacular.
Cheryl, Cath, and Jacob went up to Seeley Lake to visit the James Girard Memorial Tamarack Grove, named after her Grandfather.
Here's a plaque that explains it. 
Here's the next sign that explains "Gus", the largest Larch tree in the world. 
Here's a pic of Cath and Jacob with "Gus".
Another "Gus" pic.
And one more with Jacob.
This is the plaque that dedicates the Grove to Cath's Grandfather.
Here's the plaque.
Jacob the nut!
Seeley Lake.
Nice pic of a deer along the way.
Back at the house we did 3-2-1 ribs.
A good time was had by all.
We really enjoy Shannon, Cheryl, and the kids. They are great hosts and have a beautiful place.
Late to bed and more fishing tomorrow.

  3. It's fantastic that Jacob could see the history of his Great-grandfather's work. Truly amazing. I imagine hw was in awe of it all. The other thing I noticed in the pics is Jacob is creeping up on Grandma. He'll be taller than both of us real soon! LOL!
