We had our twin grandsons up from Pensacola this weekend and used the time to do some fun adventures.

A nice 6 point checking out the Jeep through the woods...



Explored a Native American cave used by hunting parties for probably thousands of years. About a mine from our cabin on my buddy's property.



One of our favorite swimming holes...



A storm in the valley produced a pretty nice rainbow off the cabin back deck...



Since it's been kind of dry we were able to do a couple of river crossings...

And of course they got fed good at Poppy and GrandMax's house...

Thanks Chris. It was a blast. 12 year olds are at a great age for adventure. PawPaw and MeMaw were tired and needed a cocktail (Or two) after we took them home.

Oh hell yeah. I don't think I could be a parent all over again. She and I have raised 5. Our oldest is 38 and the mother of those two. Our youngest is 22 and a he's Network Engineer. We are glad they are all out of the house.

Yep, I hear you! We have three, and I always think about how nice it would be to give them back sometimes. Mostly just the 1 year old and the 4 year old. Our oldest (almost 8) is well behaved, but the younger two, they are exhausting as hell for both of us :LOL:

I was 38 when the 22 year old was born and I was a much better parent by then. had I known what I know now I would have waited until I was older to have kids, but when you are younger you are just too stupid to know any better. It all turned out well. I have some great sons and daughters and some great grandkids with more to come I'm sure.

I was 29 when we had our first kid. So old enough to have gotten past the stupid point in my life.

It's the two girls that drive us nuts. Always at each others throats and so much drama you'd think they were teenagers!
