The girls and Heff landed safely home about 10:30 last night. After a 10.5 hour drive Maisie said "that was short!" They love their road trips, especially with Dad :) As you can see above they stopped at "Burger Queen" and then "Carl's House" (aka JR) as the girls call it for lunch and dinner. Quality roadside stops!

Oregon was too-much-fun. Oma took great care of the kids while the dads hunted 3:30am-lunch time, they all had lunch at the ranch house, napped and went back out at dusk while Oma feed the troops. This was a bow-and-arrow hunt which is pretty tricky- no big elk or deer on the ground but they are there for the adventure more than the kill so Heff had a great time... his favorite part was sharing it with his big girls :)

another shot of the coyote who found it's end thanks to Uncle Stevie. I asked Francie about it and she goes "Well. You see mom - the coyote was after the baby calves on the ranch. And you can't have a coyote killing baby calves or Uncle Ducky wouldn't make any money. Does that make sense?" Got it France.
