as only some of you are aware, this long holiday weekend is cousins’ weekend up at suwarrow. that is, the (older than 16) first cousins of my children on my side (except Sarah, Lee and Lisa’s daughter). there has been much laughter, silliness and eating, with some minor aggravation and sighing on the side. here are some highlights so far:
first night; tired travelers:
the early morning fisherman (and early around here is about 8 am):
conferring on what fly to use:
gettin’ it done:
group hike on Burdette creek:
garden tour:
chard and greens from the garden for dinner:
putting coffee rub onto our 10 pound, grassfed, locally raised brisket:
Enjoying that baby with a big ole piece of cornbread to sop it up:
everyone digging in: 
and then howling at the full moon:
a bit of slack-lining fun earlier in the day (thanks, David):
a favorite spot for reading:
David cooking up some chorizo for breakfast:
and everyone finding out:
prepping for the day’s activity:
out for the actual adventure:
the inevitable leg-wrestling event:
the end of a long day….
