Iowa is for Lovers... and corn

Howdy familia! Thanks for all of your awesome pictures Steveah! They're great. So we're
settling down here in Iowa and loving things. We have a really nice pad... as the pictures prove.
And we got some furniture down in Kansas with Mom and Dad. We got so much in fact that they
threw in a 22 inch hd tv! Pretty sweet eh? It's a definite improvement on our previous idiot box.
Here is a montage of pictures from our summer adventures.
So this is the Narrows at Zions. Awesome.



This is up at Angels Landing.


This is also at Angels Landing. It's quite a drop.



This is a rabbit outside of Zions. He wouldn't move until we were practically on top of him.




This is the Yellowstone river. Pretty awesome.





Buffalo.






So just as Old Faithful erupted these buffalo came out of nowhere and just ran by in front of it. It was crazy. The light brown ones are calves.







A marmot at yellowstone. After we left I heard some Asian people speaking to each other and throwing in the word "otter" every so often.








This is me jumping at the beach on the Oregon coast. It was awesome.










Here's Wendy jumping too.











This is our new place. I'm happy to report that Alan the aloe plant made it safely.












This is a gnarly bug that we found in our sink. Anybody ever seen one? If you zoom in a little he's a little more clear. He looks like a parasite from the black lagoon or something.













This is the house from the outside.














These aren't in any real order. I'm pretty bad at this stuff. This is the Grand Canyon. Pretty huge.















Here is Wendy jumping over the Grand Canyon. She's got hops.
















This is at Crater Lake in Oregon. It's super deep and really clear. It formed when a volcano blew itself up and it's been filling up with rain and snow ever since.

















Crater lake baby.
That's it. You guys are great. There are some sweet trails out here and we just found the Mormon Pioneer campsite this morning. It's a great place and everyone in the ward is painfully smart. Party on dudes.
