vacation!

This last weekend (Wednesday-Friday for Billy's schedule) we escaped the Valley and the scorching heat and relaxed at my aunt and uncle's cabin in the woods of Williams, Arizona.

The Grand Canyon, a muddy--but not man made--lake, fires with roasted hot dogs and s'mores, train tracks and lots of trains just a short walk away (heaven for John!), exploring in the woods, a hammock, teeter-totter, and tire swing. Here are a few of the pictures:
