Adventure Seeking



Ah, nature. There's just nothing like being out in the woods on a clear spring day, soaking up the sunshine, bathing our feet in a cold mountain stream after a long hike, watching the wildlife...





Being charged by squirrels and nearly trampled by a bull elk...

Pay no attention to the beam ceiling and skylights. What? Stuffed? Of course the animals aren't stuffed...

Okay, so we weren't in the woods. We weren't even outside. We went to Cabela's.





Jonah loves to watch the fish in the giant aquariums.





Unfortunately, you can no longer feed the big fish in the stream. But they're still fun to watch...




...blissfully unaware of the beavers moving in to attack...






Oh, so the whole reason we made the trek to the most touristy spot within 60 miles is that Nathan had to go out that way to pick up a buzz saw that he found in an ad.




Yeah, that one. I know nothing. When I heard the words "old buzz saw" I put my fingers in my ears and started singing.

So we made a family day out of it. And on our way home, we found a little hole-in-the-wall taqueria and picked up some comfort food:

  1. Aaaahhhhh... tamales! Reminds me of Oaxaca!

    And that saw... I don't know if it meets current equipment safety standards. Where's the blade guide so you don't slice open your jugular while using it? That rusty blade is tetnis heaven
