Reunion

We had the Barnes' Reunion a few weeks ago in McCall and it was a lot of fun. We haven't been up this way, so it was fun to see something new. One of the activities was a white water rafting run, but some of the kids were too young for it, so Teresa and I took them to this old small town. The kids thought it was cool seeing and playing with all of the old  gadgets they had. Jacks thought the type writer was the best thing ever. 

An old post office box that even had letters in it. 

The switch board, which made no sense to them at all. 

Then we went and walked through and old school. The best part was the books. Just how old they were and some of the teaching that they used to do. Some of them I think may be good to be back in schools. On the teachers desk there was even a paddle for the kids who were being bad. 

The lake was ok. It was very cold, and the beach part was really small, but water is water and the kids loved it. 

Everyone loved the rafting trip. No one fell out until the last possible spot, then Grandpa Barnes lost his balance and fell. Thankfully Josh helped him out of the water and every one was safe. The boys can't wait to go again.
