Limburger cheese, braunschweiger and summer sausage. I am home! Hunter and Jack went for a hike today and then had a fire in the back yard. We are happy to have escaped the heat in Texas.

Hunter with Katherine and Laura at George Ranch

Hunter rock climbing
We are on our last days of school before summer vacation. We have two more lessons in Spelling and Grammar. History will take us well into summer. Last week, Hunter and I went to George Ranch with some friends. The ranch has homes from the 1800's for kids to tour. In each house, they have people dressed in character for that era; they even talk as if they are the people who once lived in the homes. We learned a lot about life then. It was HOT though. Summer has struck early this year - yesterday I think we broke a record with 95 degrees. Today promises to be the same. Hunter and I have tennis lessons at 1:00pm!!! I am so looking forward to heading north!

We found a great indoor rock climbing gym in Houston. It probably has about 30 or more climbs you can do with ropes along with several bouldering options. A very nice place to hang out in the heat! Hunter is able to do the easy and some mid level climbs. He can get to the top rather quickly. Terry and I both trained to do the belaying for Hunter. We have fun!
