Memorial Day Colorado trip.
We went out to paint and install electrical in the cabin. The BIG news was that there was now a toilet! Best news ever! After camping in the cabin for almost 3 years it has arrived in the 20 century with running water! Once we got there we added a sink. Another fantastic improvement!
Beautiful, just beautiful!
While we worked and worked we had to have a little fun. And of course, my jeep is perfect for that.
Glorie, a friend came along with us to Colorado to help with the 7 kids we had between the Bainums and us.
We painted and painted and painted.
I have blisters on my hand from holding a paint brush.
Glorie even chipped in.
Alan decided to join us at the last minute. He is always a favorite with the kids, and his help was greatly appreciated.
We achieved light! Another huge improvement! See the lantern on the left? Soon we will no longer need it!
Unfortunately a round of sickness went through the families. Glorie suffered the most and was down for 2 days.
The last evening we went into town for dinner and the girls played the piano. They got $2 in tips!

The kids got the great idea to stalk deer and elk. Here they are sneaking up on a doe in the trees.
