McCall Trip With Gloria and Aspen. . .

This is the second summer that Zach has been on summer staff at Quaker Hill.  It's just one more reason for me to visit McCall!  I don't remember now the point of this trip but we had a good time with Gloria's friend, Aspen.  She's great.  Very much like Gloria and they get along like sisters.  Not always a good thing.  But fun to watch. . .

Road Trip!!!!

It was a gorgeous day but still a little bit chilly since it was early June.  There are perks to having a kid on summer staff like good beach access and kayaks!


Zach had to work so we only saw him a couple of times.  The girls didn't mind.  The water was cold but they decided to jump in together. . .

This is the girls mentally preparing to jump off the dock:

This is Gloria preparing to jump off the dock and Aspen mentally preparing to run. . .

This is Gloria poised on the edge and this is Aspen ready to totally ditch the whole idea:

This is Gloria becoming aware that Aspen is ditching. . .

This is Gloria catching herself as Aspen totally ditches!!!

This is Gloria yelling at Aspen and Aspen running away laughing. . .

Fuming maybe??

And friends again. . .

Jake got in on the fun. . .






Zach insisted we bring Jake because he didn't have a chance to say good-bye and, of course, Lulu had to come along. . .






Did I mention that I think Aspen is great?? (Of course, I think Gloria is Super Great!)




Another perk: The zip line. . .




When Zach finally got off work we went to Ice Cream Alley. . .
 
 He showed me the life journey that he created as part of a group project among the summer staff:

And now I remember why we went- Zach wanted a keyboard to play and Rob happened to have an extra.  We went up there to deliver it.  And to play, obviously. . .

We wrapped up the evening by frolicking on the beach. . .

These girls are so GREAT!!!
