Expert

We enlisted John, the sprinkler, moisture sensor expert to come help us with our new backyard over labor day. He was such a good sport. He worked tirelessly on Saturday from sun-up to much beyond sun-down, with us as his less than skillful "crew." He also patiently played with his adoring fan, Scott, all day Sunday. What a guy.

In front of the mission church in Old Town on Sunday afternoon.

We also took a ride on the tram on Sunday.

We enjoyed hiking up on top. Thanks for coming out John. We had a great time!

Lake Cochita

We missed going to the lake so much that we drove 45 minutes with some friends here to a little, slightly murky reservoir. It was a lot of fun. It did the trick though I was wishing for it to be a little closer to home.
