July!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK. I finally managed to get into my blog to make a new one. Remembering all these passwords is the pits.

We have had an exciting month. The most exciting thing was our family reunion in Helena, Montana. It was so great to see the cousins meeting each other, some of them for the first time. Fran had a great idea to have the reunion, and Jeff and Janiece carried it off with great aplomb. John made our flight possible, and I am still reeling from all the fun.

I am still trying to hike and get in shape for the trip to Spain. At Fran's I bought a fancy backpack and I am valiantly trying to figure out all the straps and pockets and stuff. I will eventually get it figured out and will try to feature a picture of me strapped into the thing. Naomi will help me figure it out.

Take care.
