From left to right: Joe, Steve, Bartek, John, and Julie.
John invited us over for some good local Mexican food, appetizers, and fine beverages. The Padfield's also invited us to stay for the next 2 nights, in which we had our own room, extra hot showers, and laundry. The night was a blast and the stories shared will always be memorable (watch out for the squirrel killer).
Thanks a lot guys, we really enjoyed our stay and would not trade this experience for anything. John and everyone included went out of their way to help us in enjoying our stay.
Hope to see ya soon, Christmas!!!
The 6th grade math class grew to include a couple more classes; so we moved to the computer lab and gave a semi-slide show presentation of our recent adventures. Mr. Padfield's class was most attentive and their questions and interest was greatly appreciated. It was extremely enjoyable to get such inquisitive questions, many of which we have not been asked before.

There are sure a lot of Montanians on the road this time of year. Father and son, (Rich and Tim) headed west from Missoula, Mt. up over the steep pacific-northwest range, known as the Cascades, then toured south through Washington, OR, and Northern Cal. Destination- as far as time and money will get them. Simply put- just two genuinely good souls.
Make sure to take notice of the deer in the lower-left hand corner of the photo. We were unaware of their presence, but they were well on to us.
