The One of Home Time

The past 2 weeks were spent at home in Dillon, enjoying the last month of Summer. Got our surround sound speakers finally set up. Found out that we have access to the West Coast HD Directv channels now. Other than that, a lot of relaxing, hiking, biking & grilling going on.

This past weekend, our friends Mark & Philip took part in a 24 hour bike race, called Montezuma's Revenge. Our house was used as a base for their crew & friends. With 7 dogs and several people going in and out of the house Friday night and Saturday morning it was an exciting 24 hours. Needless to say, we didn't get much sleep this weekend.

The Summit BBQ was this weekend as well, which is right in the Town of Dillon, so we got to sample some delicious pulled pork, shrimp & keilbasa kebobs and frozen chocolate covered bananas. Good fun, even though it did end up pouring on us. Kenny & Stacy, part of Philip's crew, who we met in New Orleans also (Kenny is a fellow Hokie) from Aspen stayed in town for the weekend to enjoy the BBQ. Sat night they grilled up some delicious bacon wrapped cheese stuffed shrimp. YUMMY!!

Sunday we went hiking with Erica and Sage (her black lab) in Blue River. Lots of Smurf like mushrooms on the trail.

Want to send out a Congrats to Jessica, Craig & Hunter who are celebrating the arrival of baby #2 on August 8th...Jacob Andrew (Jake). Can't wait to meet him!!
