A yellow wood

 
We stopped at a picnic area in Diamond Fork Canyon on the way home from the Hot Springs, and it was so beautiful! Yellow everywhere! It reminded me of a beautiful place we stopped in Logan Canyon years ago on the way home from Bear Lake. Little Daisy was about Clementine's age, just learning to walk, and she was wearing a little yellow dress and she was so cute! I always thought that was the prettiest picnic area I'd ever been in…until now!
It was fun because there was a big fallen tree lying all the way across a clearing. It doesn't look like it's that high, but it was high enough off the ground to be a little scary if you fell off while walking along it…which made it much more fun, of course!
Gus found a long, long stick and he was so happy about it.
I like Teddy running in the background of this one
Does Gus remind you of little Malachi? He does me. Here's Malachi 12 years ago:
Ziggy with a stick of his own
First they just walked along back and forth in single file…
but it soon devolved into North-going-Zaxes and South-going-Zaxes…and gladiator contests. Naturally.
It really wasn't very respectful of Junie to get so much taller than her older sister
What on earth? Girls on the roof.

And one last look at that glorious yellow day.
