Scenes From A Party

On Monday we had a back to school party at GG. It was the brain child of a group of children who come out on a regular basis. They were feeling sad that summer was over and wanted to have a last hurrah before classes started again. It was a fun mixture of volunteers and kiddos. Max and I want to thank all of you for helping with the food and drinks. It all was a gustatory treat we won't soon forget. I included pictures to show how the ranch means different things to different people--we just love that. A little horseback riding.
