In that last picture above, what's the story with the missing part of the ladder at the bottom? Or am I not seeing it right?
Nice pics.

Terrific Pics, Thank you for sharing!!!!
Very Cool Looks like a great year to me! THanks for sharing
You can never put too many pics on. Fine lookin family. What did the boy do to his thumb? I had to look at that pic a long time before I could tell what it was.
Bryce, you were "seeing" right.. The ladder started about 6 feet off the ground..Texas...an Adventure getting in but one Heck of a stand....Skyler's Thumb..Cut the round end off his thumb, now it's flat. We were camping and bowfishing and you can see his waterproof bandage in one of the pics..these little accidents seem to follow us around...This pic is a Stingray Stinger from a bowfishing Adventure. Some of the newer members might not have seen it. It's in Skyler's leg and is quite a story....Don on Skyler's computer.. (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CIMG0869-1.jpg)
