Bear Cannisters

Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) now requires bear cannisters for overnight backcountry camping. While I don't anticipate we will have campers this year, let me know when you want to make those plans. We will purchase a cannister(s) to store in Highlander.

2009 Fam Photo ???

What do you think?

Admittedly, this weirdly sized, very posed, poorly inked and papered photo is growing on me!

Dill did offer us the opportunity to go to their studio in Estes Park to purchase frames for their pictures; I just didn't realize that's because their pictures are really very nonstandard sizes. I will go to their studio in May to buy frames for my pictures. If you like the frames I find, we can go back in July!


It seems we have 3 Pro Photo choices for 2009:

1) Have no Pro Photos taken.

2) Make an appointment with Dill Photo as last year.

3) Find a photographer who will come to Highlander
and provide a method of reproduction that would
produce good quality standard sized prints.

Any other ideas?

Please let me know what you think!

2009 Visit - Can't Wait!

Most Averitts will arrive Sat, Jul 25 and depart Sun, Aug 2. Jim, Gwen, and the Larges will probably arrive earlier although the Larges will spend time in Vail. Anyone who can come earlier is most welcome!


Graham will be bringing night vision to help in our beaver hunts! He He


Jim's friends, the Fawcetts, will be staying in Highlander the week after we leave. They have twin 4 yr old boys and a 6 yr old girl and will also bring one set of grandparents. We hope they have half as much fun as we do!!!

..... or, considering this pic of our favorite babes ..... maybe not!
