Trip to Turtle Bay

Suzanne, Brody, and Owen arrived for a visit to Chico on December 28, and settled in at Meemaw's. We had several nice dinners together, but were stymied by a Thai conspiracy one evening. Katya joined the cousins for a sleep over at Meemaw's, everyone went swimming at Ross's pool, and the kids also visited the Chico Nature Center. Saturday January 2nd, we piled in two cars, Peg and Suzanne (and the kids) in one car, Ross and I in the other. Strangely, Suzanne and Peg weren't able to listen to "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" on the radio??? The weather cooperated enough for us to enjoy the outdoor portion of the museum as well as the indoor exhibits.

If you look closely you will find: Ross, Suzanne, Katya, Brody, and Owen in the Tree House. The structure is built of willow and took approximately 3.5 weeks to construct.
We all had a wonderful visit and hope that the next get together will be soon!
