A couple weekends ago we headed out to Alabama, to my brother-in-law’s house, to celebrate Father’s Day with my father-in-law and most of the immediate family. I always have a blast when I am out there, and this time was no exception. I took a few pics for posterity.

Rolling watermelons. Somebody got an extra pallet delivered, so they were going bad. |
|
Ethan’s turn. |
|
Steven’s turn! While everyone else waits patiently. |
|
Kelly’s turn! |
|
Adam’s special roll. |
|
Picking watermelons and waiting to roll. |
|
The carnage – or at least the parts that didn’t roll into the vegetation. |
|
Clearly, it’s time to bring out the boom sticks and shoot those things. |
|
Steven shoots. |
|
After knocking off a few rounds, we go down to inspect. |
|
There were some pretty flowers in the pea family. |
|
And some wild sunflower-daisy things. |
Unfortunately, at this point my DSLR battery died. It’s old enough that it always says it’s low, so sometimes I forget to charge it. So I have just a few shots from my Optimus.
|
Four-wheeling – and golf-carting. These shots are from the golf cart. |
|
Hanging out in a pretty field, checking out rock formations. |
|
Unfortunately, you can’t see it, but lovely light from the creek was reflecting on the underside of the boulder. |
|
Going through the woods. |
Afterward, Justin let Molly and I learn how to drive four-wheelers. I had a really great time. It’s nice to have a great brother-in-law with fun toys and a wonderful family to play with.
