| Westville for Labor Day September 3 - 5, 2010 | |
| We made a very quick trip to Westville over
      Labor Day weekend.  We hung out with Mom & Dad, attended the
      Cherokee Holiday (me & Mom), and Eric did some climbing at Lake
      Lincoln.  Then we loaded up Gran and all went over for a nice dinner
      with Uncle Shorty and Aunt Bernice.  My cousin Gene was nice enough
      to come over as well so it felt like a family reunion. | |

| We celebrated the beautiful weather by taking Long Dog for a ride in the trail wagon. | Isn't this a thing of beauty?  My Dad's sense of organization is an inspiration to me. | 
|  |  | 
| It is lovely out at the Cherokee Heritage Center in Tahlequah. We were there for the Cherokee Holiday craft fair. | Mom's friend was awarded the "Cherokee Living Treasure" (Master Craftsman) honor that day. She makes traditional baskets. | 
|  |  | 
| Another of Mom's friends - he was in the blowgun contest. | After dinner with Shorty and Bernice, we visited Bernice's quilt room for a tour of her beautiful handiwork. |

| Shorty reminisces though a book of old family photos while Eric (the socializer) behaves himself. | I caught Gran with her eyes closed in this picture with Gene. I hadn't seen Gene in about 20 years so his visit was a nice treat. |
