Joy at the Johnson Cabin

Karen invited her hiking friends to spend the afternoon at the Johnson cabin on Payette Lake.
Chris, Ann, Irene, and Christine

We enjoyed a leisurely afternoon watching the girls "swim" in the hot tub, pick daisies and entertaining each other.
Kennedy cutting the daisies and Taylor holding a big one!

 She picked enough so every adult and child had one!

Jennifer "Nooner's" Mom became the resident grandma sitter for her sweet grandchildren.  Of course those Johnson girls adore Karen and often called out to her throughout the afternoon




















I watched Kennedy and Taylor swim in the lake.  They've both taken weekly survival swim lessons every week since they were 6 months old.  AnnMarie said, "it's finally paying off."  They can both swim on their little bellies and then flip over and swim on their back!

We did not leave until we enjoyed S'mores ala AnnMarie around the campfire.  We headed toward Ann's rented cabin and discussed where we would watch the meteor shower, settling on a very dark golf cart path.  Several flashed across the sky, but we were not willing to see the major light show between midnight and 2 AM.  We needed our rest for the big hike the next day to Duck Lake.
