While we were still in Bozeman I got a call from Brenda - she called to let us know that she and Barry where on the way to the hospital (a good 2 hour trip for them!) because she thought she may have broken her ankle/foot. We hung out in Bozeman a bit longer (had lunch with Holly, Ron and Grace) and then headed off to Island Park. We still managed to beat B&B home!
When we pulled into the driveway, we thought we were at the wrong house. Last time we visited (3 years ago) B&B had a small cabin in the woods (harder to get to - more secluded). This time we ended up here...

At this beautiful brand new home! (Custom built we later found out). Jason wasn't sure we were at the right place at first, but I saw the "Lab Crossing" (Is in "Labrador Crossing") sign and knew we were at the right house! :O)

Here is the inside - as soon as you walk in you see this gorgeous wood railing


And then there's the kitchen (I LOVED this kitchen!!)...

The living room. Ah, familiar furniture! :o)

Love the shelf Bren had added in...

Looking down from the loft...

The loft... (Jason was so jealous of all the room - me too!)

While we waited for B&B to return from the ER, we enjoyed their screened in patio! Cheers!


We also watched a storm roll in from their upstairs deck... pretty cool clouds (the pictures don't come close to showing how neat they were!)...



On July 4th we did a 'fun run' (or in our case a 'fun WALK'!). Check out the numbers Jason and I got! ;o) Gee, do you think they were alphabetical?!

On the trail with our walking buddies - Barry and Kyle (of course Bren had to stay home :o( - we missed her).

One of our famous self portraits. The scenery was beautiful!!

Here's a better look at the water we are standing infront of...

After the walk, we came home, loaded up Bren and headed to the top of the hill.

Views from the top... again, just beautiful!!

I told Barry this scene makes me think I'm going to see Julie Andrews running around the hills singing "THE HILLS ARE ALIVE, WITH THE SOUND OF MUSIC!" :o)


Us in front of the big 'soccer ball'. It's really a communciation tower.

That night we headed to BOONDOCKS for supper. We now know why they call it that... it's in the middle of nowhere and you wouldn't get there unless you knew exactly where you were going! Very good food - and the owners were from PORTLAND! ;o)


Barry, Jason and I ate there - we brought food home for Brenda. Little did we know that we were really bringing food home for Bren AND for Tana! ;o) While we were eating, I guess Brenda let Tana up on the bed and the two of them had a nice little nap! (Spoiled dog!)

Before we left we took a few timer shots - we are very creative... we used the top of a bottle of wine as the tripod! ;o)


Minus the fact that Bren was out of commission for most of the time, we had a great time! It was fantastic to see them again - we so look forward to our time with them. :o)
Here are a few shots of us traveling home... "Ah, nothing like having your hubby drive you home!" (For the record I DID drive part of the way home - ask Jason!)

Another great self portrait. (Kids, don't try this at home.)

We had a VERY pooped out puppy! :o)

Tana slept for DAYS after we got home... Jason said the first few days back all she did was sleep while he was at work. ;o) (Again, spoiled dog!)
