Also, we planted a Golden Willow tree, in honor of Arbor Day. It's awful pretty there in our yard.

May 20, 2009.. Well, we hope you are coming this way (to Montana). If not, we can see you next month (June) when we're in Wyoming again. This time, it will be about the 20th (that weekend). You have much to say. Not so much for us, except lots of news regarding the Democrats of Montana. Old news now. Hope you come here, because we can listen better!! Welcome home you two!!

If we ever get to go to the Galapagos, it sounds like we'd like to use your company. I was concerned that it would be too ruined by tourists, but it doesn't sound like it! Thank you for the vicarious pleasure!

Thanks for your adventure updates and love that you are walking in a daze...of wonderment...I assume. You are missing a cold crisp morning in Jackson (Zero out). Have fun unplugging and wandering up into the Magdelena River Valley. Love you guys...onward

Thanks so much for taking us along! We just returned from a surprise Santa trip to Denver and it's good to be home. Everyone there remembers Xmas at the Tree House as their most memorable ever.
