heading home after a week on vacation. bringing a cousin home with us. the three of them are packed into the back seat for a 6 hour drive. frida likes to rest her tired head on the center console of the jetta and maybe takes up more than her fair share of space but the humans don’t seem to mind 🙂
we decided to take a little hike pre-birthday hike up hogback mountain near marquette, michigan.
we didn’t know it at the time but some consider it one of the most difficult hikes in michigan. i don’t know about that, but it was challenging. the hard work was worth it though because the view of lake superior and the surrounding area was gorgeous.
super serious selfie alert! hiking and climbing and serious business 🙂
do yourself a favor and click through the panorama and view full sized on a large screen.
poppi, always with the picture taking.
wow, how time flies – we haven’t had this crew together for 6 years! since then some have been born, many have gotten bigger and at least one of us has gotten much smaller 🙂 always great to see family. odin had a grand time with his cousins.
i’m sure somewhere i have a photo of us the last time we got together that i should dig out.
as always, the odds are slim of getting everyone to look at the camera at the same time in family photos.
looks like odin and frida got a good night’s sleep!
lots of experimenting with endless combinations of cars and track configurations to see which cars can make it down the launch hill, through the loop, around the curve and over the jump.
genius way to keep them preoccupied for hours on end.
on vacation in michigan, enjoying the dunes and beach at p.j. hoffmaster state park.
