CAMPFIRES, PUPPIES AND HISTORICAL MILLS

Campfire memories are something we all have at some point in our lives. Whether its sitting around telling ghost stories, fish tales or just listening to the crackle of the wood and watching the flames dance. It can also be a first for some of us like our Mom who never had the opportunity to experience the outdoors. Who says you can't experience new things ever when your eighty years old! Winking smile


Another first we have all enjoyed is watching Nan and Wayde's little Shih Tzu puppies Angel and Chloe enjoy romping in the grass (which is almost as tall as them) with their Mom Rosie and Dad Rocky (aka. Chewy). Talk about happy campers!

We also visited the historic Butte Creek Mill in Eagle Point Oregon. It began operating in 1872 and farmers would traveled from miles away to bring their grain to the mill to have it made into flour. The miller was paid for his services by keeping every seventh bag of flour to sell in the mill's general store. Very interesting little day trip.
