So, one Sunday afternoon I got home from the gym and came upstairs and saw Mark all armed up and I couldn't resist the temptation to take pictures. Afterall, this is a very common scene in the Brown household. He later ran around the house playing war with the boys. It was quiet entertianing.

Gardner Canyon Oct 2009

This is a mine shaft that we discovered on our hike. It was really neat, we saw the tracks that the carts would ride, the boys were fascinated. And of course Dad wants to go back and actually go in it and explore....me, I not such a huge fan of that. You never know what will come crawling out of those mines. Dad also had the boys try MRE's. Lets just say that they prefer McDonalds over MRE's. But, at least they go to experience it.
