Bixby visit and a couple of days at Lake lopez

Bixby came to  visit and Mike
 taught him how to make a pine needle basket


 Bixby still enjoys building with blocks.
 He spent a lot of time on this city.


Complete with people in the pool 


 

 


He took the pictures himself
to record his work 






 

 He also enjoyed this domino game.
Interesting how he organized the colors.



 My brother Simon and his wife 
 came to visit from Oregon

 Simon showing us his camera

Brian and my mom 


We enjoyed making music together 


Mike and I spent a few days at Lake Lopez
just to relax in nature.
This is one of our favorite nearby getaways.
The wildlife is amazing there.
We saw a gopher snake and a tarantula 
on our hike. The campsite is always full 
of deer, quail and turkeys. 




 





 






 We follow the deer to watch the sunset over the lake. 


















The fall colors are beginning 
 Our favorite camping spot



The deer hang out on the hill 


 and explore our campsite 

 

 So Mike goes out to talk to them 
  


 And play them music



 








mom and baby stayed close  

 





A good fire and good music 



The next morning the camp was full of wild turkeys
