Cabin Craziness

Here is the cabin that belongs to the Lane Family (the two at the back in the group shot). It's in Nederland, which I probably spelled incorrectly... but I don't mind if you don't. It's actually up near Boulder-ish. The cabin doesn't have running water and there IS a composting toilet that will assault you with it's stinky goodness. I have to say, despite the toilet, I'm a big fan of the cabin. (although running water would have been handy when the grill almost lit itself on fire...)
Missy, I totally stole this picture from your blog! Anyway, from the left are Missy and Steve, Me and Laura, Zach and Brandon.
Let the diggin for worms begin! The fellas went fishing for awhile and has some success, but threw everything back.
There is Missy hanging out by the stream that is across the street from the cabin.
Here is Mr. Fox (Scout). He came by the cabin while the boys were fishing and we were reading/making art.... He hung out and let us snap pictures of him for awhile. He knows how pretty he is.
I love his go-go boots.
Let the games begin! There were lots of games at the cabin (which I was to ADD to play, except for YAHTZEE)... but because there isn't any electricity, we needed the lanterns.The kids decided that the lantern had to be hung from fishing line from the ceiling...then set on top of this leaning tower of items and tipped sideways to better light the game boards.
Everyone almost died on several occasions when the lighting contraption decided it would like to topple....

We had a great time AND nobody died!

That sure is a foxy lady...
I can't believe she/he posed like that! What a great shot...(I mean the cabin fever dudes, of course!)

Oh, the lantern. And all the yelling that went along with it. If I didn't know them better, I would have guessed that Brandon and Zach were gonna throw down. It was like Jenga, but the stakes were much, much higher! Good times! The toilet was stinky, but I'm glad I didn't have to poop in the woods! However, that may have gone more successfully than other things that were attempted... You are the Yahtzee queen. Is Yahtzee like a Yiddish word for loud dice in a plastic cup?

I am also grateful not to have to poop in the woods...especially because you never know who you'll run into...Missy and Steve perhaps? hmmm...
