This is Flunky Cabin. I have no idea when it was built, but there wasn't much left of it to say the least.
This is the house that Flunky Built. Along with a guy or gal maybe named Lamb, and Rourke and Hartwar?? I don't remember the Plasterer name.
Ok, so today we were lookin' for some fun on a Sunday. We loaded up early, drug the kids out of bed and headed for Diamond Valley where my mom & dad live. It's a little cooler up there (about 10 degrees) but everyone of those degrees helps, right? You BET! I didn't get a lot of pictures, but it was an ok trip. The weather was warm, but not hot, and the group of us was awesome. Mom & dad took their four wheeler, Josh & Nikki w/ their Rhino, Scott & Shareen w/ their Rhino, and Desi rented on with her Gramma Norma. It was fun and always is a great time with everyone. We packed up lunches and ate while we are on our trip. With a flat tire on Josh's Rhino we still have fun. They limped it back, having to air up every so often. We even did a couple geo caches! Now we have another 34 miles to add to our trips! Below are some of the pictures of the day....
A beautiful canyon on the back way from Diamond Valley towards Silver Reef.
This was a pretty neat signature rock. We didn't stay long enough to do our name!
This picture of Kody is by one of the geo caches that we found. It's clue was wash your hands and then use the air dryer to dry them off. Not too far away was a water pipe that actually blew air out of it sticking out of the ground. Below is Shane pulling out the treasure.

We took a camping trip over Labor Day weekend to Jacob Lake. It was a blast and a great get away. When can you ever pass up a trip away from home, doing the things we love; camping, Rhino'ing, spending time with family and friends. The Holt family (Scott, Shareen, Desi, Josh & Nikki), my parents, and my sister and her two kids joined us as well. We stayed at full hook up camping place and it has really tall pine trees. We had two days of raining days, and took a quick trip to the Grand Canyon. It was nice to see the "Big hole in the ground" as Braden liked to call it. But the cloud cover didn't really show the beauty of it all. We will have to take a trip back to explore that again!
Shane was the only BRAVE one of our famiily to climb to the top of this Look Out Tower. It was 80 Feet high and he went up with Papa Scott. I tried to climb up, but couldn't get past the woobling of the stairs as I was going up. Not to mention, I think I am a little afraid of hights. Kevin is worse then me of heights, but I had no idea that I would be effected too! He didn't even try!
This is on their way up to the tippy top. The picture above I think is Shane's head. Desi and Josh & Nikki made it too. Shane thought it was soo cool, but once he was on the ground he looked a little pale.
Here are some randon picutes of some of the events that took place on our trip. 
On Sunday we took a trip to go feed the ducks. Desi gave me the great idea. Before Kody was born Shane and would go at least once a week and Kody has been missing out of the fun. This was his 1st time visiting the ducks. I thought for sure he would be afraid of them. Shane sure was at his age. With time Shane has gotten a little less afraid of them, but Kody was chasing them while Shane was waiting back by the bench only to make sure they didn't get too close. 
Happy Birthday Shane. I hope you have a fun birthday party at Hidden Valley Water Park! You had lots of friends and family show up and played hard in the water and slides. The weather even turned out to be pretty nice even though the rain clouds looked like it was going to make it a rainey day! Shane would like to say "THANKS" to everyone!
