When I was little, this is where we had to go to the bathroom - it was scary especially at night.
You just might be a redneck if you keep your lawn mowing equipment with your toilet.
You just might be a redneck if you turn your truck bed into a playpen in your front yard. (I couldn't let Philip in the grass because of the cacti.)
This is where Papa taught me to fish. I cannot go fishing without thinking about him. I didn't mind catching my own bait or baiting my own hook, but Papa always took the fish off of the hook for me. This time I did it on my own - I think he would be proud (even if it was a little bluegill).

This is a helgrimite - they live under the rocks in the fast flowing water, and are a favorite dinner for fish. While hunting them one time I found a snake. It took me about two leaps to get to the other side of the river.
Pa and Philip hung out for a while so I could do some fishin'.
Philip liked the fish and probably would have eaten it if I would have let him.
Erin caught a pregnant fish!
Three generations.
Awwww...Bryon and Erin!
Brandywine lake
COLD water!
A fun place to play in the water.
Sun setting on the lake.
It has probably been a long time since there was a baby at the cabin. We lived without a lot of the usual things - a bath tub, carpet, heat. Philip was a trooper and especially liked the baths in the sink.
Granny loved playing dominoes in the evening. So we had to play. This night, Bryon was having a little trouble getting his "train" started and he ended up with most of the dominoes and a bad attitude. Eventually, the rest of us got stuck (because Bryon had drawn all of the dominoes), so he ended up winning! Fun night!
The second place we went fishing.
Oh how beautiful!
Nobody caught anything this day, but it was great just being able to enjoy the scenery.
